A creative excursion to the Balinese Masters exhibition

We headed back to the amazing AB•BC art space to visit their latest exhibition: Balinese Masters: Aesthetic DNA Trajectories of Balinese Visual Art.

The Jakarta Post has an amazing wrap up of the exhibition and artists- definitely worth a read. As a team we fell in love with so many of the pieces. It was an incredible journey through Bali’s art history.

Wayan Sujana Suklu’s work grabbed our attention and we came back to it a few times throughout the morning.

Wayan Bendi’s 10 meter long painting in the Batuan style was incredible. So many sharp scenes, moments and commentary on Bali.

The pieces by Made Griyawan, especially this one of Gunung Agung erupting last year were such a pleasure to discover.

This pumice installation by I Made Djirna was also magic.

Looking forward to coming back to the space in October when Art Bali returns. We also have our fingers crossed for more representation for Bali and Indonesia’s female artists.
