Indonesia is the largest Islamic nation, despite earlier Hindu-Buddhism and Christianity later. Consequently, different aesthetic attitudes in religions affected Indonesian artistic education. Moreover, according to my experiences, Indonesians are creative; complicate; irrational in arguments; seldom take initiative; reluctant in thinking, seen in classroom. Therefore, I developed a 4-clover pattern, where one can express his/her creativity and logical thinking through texts, images, colours and emotions. Inside the pattern, making own symbols aims at preventing complicatedness; colours for emotional expression; concepts in shapes for mind control; completion dates for effectiveness; arguments for initiative attitudes. Additionally, similar connotations of the pattern in Hindu-Buddhism, Christianity and Islam could unite all participants. The empirical workshops were done in 2003-7 at various places with a motto: “Can creative and logical thinking in art education enhance our future?” The result was very positive. My paper discusses how the workshop contributed to broader communication at current conflicted societies.
