With over a decade of dynamic experience

in the fashion and media industry,

Suhadi has produced a rich spectrum of work

which has established themself

as a seasoned creative collaborator

Growing up queer in Indonesia

a modest country crowded with religious communities

and influenced by post-colonial beauty standards,

Suhadi was pushed

to find imaginative ways to express themself.

As a form of rebellion,

Suhadi used fashion as a creative outlet

to release their frustration

against the status quo,

producing fashion editorial stories

as love letters to fellow misfits.

Fed up with the suppressive limitations,

Suhadi moved to Berlin, Germany,

where they discovered newfound freedom in self-expression. There,

they discovered new depths and widths of beauty

true diversity. It was a liberating experience

seeing people honor each other for their raw energy and authenticity.

This transformative journey led Suhadi

to create bumi faces, Casting Agency and Talent Scout,

a world of faces seen from a new lens,

to reimagining beauty standards, to expand our perspective on humanity.
