Social interaction is a human need as a living creature that basically can only live if it is related to other creatures. Art is a product of human creation that is used as a form of cultural expression and social expression. The social interaction form of artwork can be seen from the illustration of "Sleborz" from Mufti Priyanka. The themes of the work raised are forms of events in everyday life that for some people might be considered 'trivial'. The focus of this research is the sociological study of art which aims to find out the forms of social interaction that occur in society in large cities through illustration works of Mufti. Qualitative descriptive research method will be used as a tool to analyze findings data. The data obtained is the result of observations and interviews directly with related artists to describe the findings and then describe according to facts or condition. The form of the "Sleborz" illustration from Mufti Priyanka is one of the many illustrative works that directly describe the daily lives of people in big cities. With the various polemics, the illustrations that emerge from the idea of the Mufti can be a complete picture of the forms of social interaction that takes place around us.
