Tjoko. Gus  Wiratmaja , HP : 081 33711 9544

was born in the village of Padang Tegal, precisely in a remote village near the village of Ubud Bali. I was the son of  tjokorda P. Sudarsana dan Tjok. Istri Agung. Born on February 17 in Year 1984. My second child of three brothers. mother is a traditional dancer Arje very popular in Bali with Buduh Mantri play. and father had had a chance to be a painter he was still working during the police. because there is a problem and are often deceived by a friend of his paintings, he chose not to pursue painting again, and now he has been retired and opened a gas stove service at home. and the results are pretty to eat his children. My mother was also an elementary school teacher who teaches art, many achievements that have been etched from the students taught.
My talent has appeared when I was 9 years old at the time I was sitting in 4th grade elementary school, parents said my general grades not good but high art value. from there I started in suport by both parents to explore my talent in art kususnya art. at grade 6 elementary school I was told by the principal and the principal happened to me it still had a bond of brotherhood with my family, he gave advice to wait after graduating from high school SMSR or I was told to go to college in the ISI (Institut Seni Indonesia) Yogyakarta.
after graduating I continued my primary school in junior high school I Sukawati (Secondary School) in 1996-1999, this school happened very close to my house degan ie Singapadu Village, where this village was the birthplace of my mother and father own and we settled in here after moving from ubud. after graduating I went school at Vocational High School I Sukawati or usually called SMSR (Secondary School of Fine Arts) in the year 1999-2002. This school I met a teacher who sngat I admire and I respect, because he gives a lot of inspiration and motivation to work and how an artist in art, he is the GD Pande Sempidi Supada from Tabanan area.

After graduation I went to college SMSR at ISI Yogyakarta in accordance with the principal recommended me to sit in during elementary school. Upon arrival in Yogyakarta and I signed up, I am taking the test should I live with my friends yg Bali also come together to Yogyakarta to college. We take the exam for the first time in the community of Gods Sanggar Indonesia, there we were taught how to sketch people who have criticized bali education before us. It was surprising that our skills are far better than they think. Our sketch in biki-out humiliation. In addition we are also taught sketch to draw shapes dngan use shading. Of concern older sisters who taught us on everything from mental improvement and honing our skills so thank you a lot in his journey, although we have a lot of insults and physical treatment is still limited to normal. I personally pick the result that after the exam was over we felt very close and seemed to have relatives who are equally concerned with “the brothers” who had just come from Bali to study in Yogyakarta.
I passed the exam and ditrima in ISI Yogyakarta in 2002 and graduated in 2008. After I criticized the arts education in Yogyakarta, a lot of things I found that I am personally very thankful for the term “overseas” because of this term and result in behaviors and attitudes can certainly have independent thought through the experience and insights that I found during the yogyakarta. Sometimes it had sold the work I used to work back and keluarg and the rest saved. For me art in Yogyakarta has a climate which is always crowded art will berkeseniannya activity, will never recede art exhibitions. This is a factor that is able to raise the motivation of the artists to create art. Besides the exhibition there are also art competitions, seminars, art, ferporment art, discussions, workshops, and other activities. In addition there is the assumption that artists sometimes have a skate-skater in her social of the older artists or professionals, but in Yogyakarta it was missing. I personally find free mix of experience and insight as well as exchange ideas to artists in Yogyakarta.
S1 After I graduated I now proceed to graduate, my goal into the S2 would want to explore the theory and practice so that later I can give responsibility for my work before the public. And now art for me is a motivation to achieve peace of mind and feelings.
