Muhammad Fatchurofi is an illustrator living and working in Semarang, Central Java, Indonesia. For Fatchurofi, his personal illustration practice functions as a journal of sorts—capturing experiences, interests, and learnings from his daily life. “The conceptual and symbolic nature of my illustration helps me encode all these personal events so I can share it comfortably, however I invite anyone who sees my work to give their own interpretations apart from my experience,” he explains. Recording phases of his life and significant events through his creative “journaling” practice allows him to reflect and see things in a more positive light. Recently, he has been exploring a new series focused around specific ideas and themes. In addition to his personal practice, Fatchurofi takes on commissioned work for editorial publications and music projects like album covers and posters.
