This project explores a modern reinterpretation of a classic dangdut icon, reimagining the album cover of Caca Handika. Known for his distinctive style and hits like Undangan Palsu, Mandi Kembang, and Bakar Kemenyan, Caca Handika represents a unique blend of traditional dangdut culture and theatrical expression.
The redesign aims to bridge nostalgia and contemporary visual language—capturing the expressive, mystical, and dramatic essence often found in his music, while translating it into a more refined and relevant aesthetic for today’s audience. Inspired by elements of Indonesian culture, including his connection to batik motifs, this exploration seeks to elevate dangdut’s visual identity into something bold, iconic, and culturally resonant.

Before & After: Photo Restoration for Sareena
This is what happens when a real creative uses AI as a tool, not a crutch.
I worked with Indian model Sareena to restore vintage photos and edit reels that actually feel human. The before shots were faded, damaged, and low-res. The after? Clean, vibrant, and true to who she is.
AI helped with some of the heavy lifting (upscaling, noise reduction), but every creative decision was mine. Color grading, composition, retouching, the final look: all hand-directed. That's the difference between AI-generated work and work where AI answers to a designer.
Tools used: Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Premiere Pro, ChatGPT (as an assistant, not the artist).
Wow, looks cool!
