David Wibowo

David Wibowo is a Digital Media Production major at Dordt and has a passion for all things cameras. Wibowo is a filmmaker and visual artist whose work exists at the intersection of documentary storytelling, faith, and a deliberately composed visual aesthetic.

He discovered his calling during a missions trip to Daboto, a remote village deep in the central interior of Papua, where he was tasked with documenting the work of missionaries who had spent more than two decades teaching the gospel to village children hundreds of miles from the nearest town. Witnessing that impact firsthand and seeing how powerfully a story could carry it forward convinced him that documentation is not merely a record of mission work but an integral part of the mission itself.

Today, Wibowo creates short documentaries and videos that explore themes of faith, stewardship, and community. This includes Golden Work, a recently released documentary produced in collaboration with his close friend, Jackson Visscher. Whether he is behind the camera in the field or shaping a story in post-production, he is driven by the conviction that the way these stories are told can move people and inspire them to action.
