Background and education
Victoria Veronica Titisari Kosasieputri was born on February 7, 2000, in Jakarta, Indonesia. She is the second daughter of Alexander Kecil Kosasie, a Chinese-Indonesian businessman from Bali, and Ratih Soe Kosasie, a tango dancer and former model from Malang, East Java.[1][2] Victoria has a sister named Alexandra "Anda" Kosasie. In 2002, the Kosasie family relocated from South Jakarta to Badung, Bali, to expand their family business.[3]
From childhood, Victoria showed an interest in the arts, particularly music. She studied various instruments, including piano and guitar, and was active in singing. As she grew up, influenced by Bali's rich cultural environment, she began exploring contemporary performing arts during her teenage years.[4][5]
Victoria completed her secondary education at Canggu International School, Bali in 2016.[4] In 2019, she continued her studies in London, earning a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) in Fine and Studio Arts from Central Saint Martins College, University of the Arts London, which she completed in 2022.[6] In 2024, she pursued postgraduate studies for a Master of Arts (M.A.) in Contemporary Art Practice at the Royal College of Art, London, supported by the Deputy Vice Chancellor International Scholarship, completing the program in 2025.[1][7][8]
Pageantry
Puteri Indonesia Bali 2026
In 2026, Victoria decided to enter the world of beauty pageants by joining the selection process for Puteri Indonesia 2026. On February 24, 2026, she participated in the third-stage audition online from London and was selected as Puteri Indonesia Bali 2026, earning the right to represent the Province of Bali at the national competition.[9] Following this success, Victoria resigned from her job in London and returned to Indonesia to fully prepare for the pageant.[10][11]
Puteri Indonesia 2026
After being selected as Puteri Indonesia Bali 2026, Victoria represented Bali at the national beauty pageant held at Plenary Hall, Jakarta International Convention Center, Central Jakarta, on April 24, 2026. Even before the main competition, she won several special awards: Best Catwalk,[12] Best Talent,[13] Best Profile Video,[14] and 3rd Best Evening Gown.[15]
On the night of the finals, Victoria advanced to the top 16 semifinalists and then into the top 6. During the Q&A session, she received a question from Widiyanti Putri Wardhana, Indonesia's Minister of Tourism, asking whether artificial intelligence (AI) in the tourism sector fosters more collaboration or intensifies competition among nations. Victoria answered:
AI is a double edge sword. On one hand, it can increase the possibilities for collaboration through enchancing efficiency with communication channels for tourism. However, on the other hand, there is a dark side to AI that we must know and that it uses a lot of energy and actually has bad impacts for our environment and that is the very reason why tourism has happened and so we need to able to balance the two in order to survive. Thank you.
At the end of the event, Victoria reached the top 4 and was crowned Puteri Indonesia Lingkungan 2026. She was crowned by her predecessor, Melliza Xaviera from Jakarta SCR 1.[16][17] Victoria became the third woman from Bali to win this title, after Ayu Diandra Sari Tjakra in 2008 and Putu Ayu Saraswati in 2020.[18][19]
Miss International 2026
On May 5, 2026, Victoria was announced as Indonesia's delegate to the international beauty pageant Miss International 2026, to be held in Tokyo, Japan.[20]
Advocacy and programs
Victoria initiated an arts preservation advocacy through her "KemBALIkeSENI" initiative.[6][11] This initiative arose from her concern for the fate of traditional Balinese artists who are often overlooked behind the tourism industry. The program aims to create a collaborative space that brings together artists, galleries, arts institutions, and young people, through activities such as open studios, public discussions, and cross-sector collaborations. Substantively, the program focuses on increasing the visibility of Balinese artists, strengthening fair economic value for arts practitioners, and building collective awareness that the sustainability of Balinese culture rests on the community that actively preserves it.[16][21]
