The primary themes that we explore here are Kala, Earth and Spirit. In and of themselves, their nature. In addition to seeing these three entities separately, the threading of them together in this collaboration is to ask you to explore your relationship to each of these elements.Kala, Earth and SpiritKala is known to come with many definitions. Among these are time, death, performing arts, and specific deities in Hinduism, Javanese and Balinese mythologies. Yet, despite the many origin stories, there is a connecting thread that Kala is all of those manifestations. However, in this Collaboration, Kala is our canvas. Here Kala is defined specifically through her manifestation as TIME. Of the three characters that we introduce, Kala is the faceless one. She is not represented as a portrait, or in a painting. Yet, she is present in them and in a significant way. That is also part of our display and exploration of Time. Part of the reflections in which Sawidji invites you to contemplate.How different art mediums reinforce the message..Kala is experienced through the conceptual portraits of the two Guardians representing our Earthly World and our Spiritual World. The portraits of the Guardians of Earth and Spirit were created through a combination of installations and the photography of Dewi Dian and ManButur Suantara. The paintings of Nyoman Handi respond to the questions and reflections raised by the Guardian portraits.Collaboration, More Than Just a WordAll the mediums present in this collaboration bring very different qualities. Sawidji leads with photography. However, the photographic works are actually partners to installation pieces. Installation pieces that we created together as a team. The making of the costumes and studio installations together as a team is truly at the heart of each of our collaborations. A seed of an idea may be singular, but as it germinates and grows, all the contributing elements are what make it possible for it to flourish and blossom. Much the same for Sawidji Collaborations.The artists that come together agree on the message. We feel the same about the message. It resonates in each of us. With this trust and agreement, we move together throughout the day and create together, the best embodiment of our concept. There is in fact a lot of freedom. A lot of room for each person to spontaneously make changes and try new things. There is no shortcut to the process. Our work is a result of going through a growth and maturing process for each concept, and this is done together.Online Exhibition available for viewing https://sawidji.com/2022/12/13/kala-and-the-guardians-a-timely-reflection/ala-and-the-guardians-a-timely-reflection/)

An introduction to a contemporary art festival debuting this year in Bali that is in its early stages already showing signs of extraordinary possibilities. In nature Nungkalik is bold, experimental and conceptual. Centred on the idea offered by artist and lecturer Dr. Sujana Suklu that artists on a daily basis are subconsciously learning a universal intuitiveness whilst responding to the world throughout their lives.That is to say, whether through their movements, musical or visual expressions as well as verbal interactions. Their bodies and memories compile experiences that keep developing and transforming with each day that passes. Their sensitivity to phenomena that occurs outside of themselves inevitably gets stronger and becomes a substantive sensitivity in their respective internal worlds. We may say this transforms into an instinctive sensitivity that does not require conscious deliberation when external elements circle close to their internal world.The Premise of Nungkalik Art FestivalArtists are invited to participate in this experimental study, from different backgrounds, geographic locations as well as varying creative disciplines. Throughout the festival, community members with specialty areas in sociology, psychology, education and music were also invited to participate and observe. The global theme for the Nungkalik International Art Festival 2023 was introduced as ‘Exploring Archetypes’ with specific explorations on associated concepts during each workshop day.Participating artists were involved in these workshops together with members of the Fine Arts and Performance Arts student body. Our day beginning with a discussion circle. Together exchanging thoughts and ideas about the proposed themes and the significance of the chosen mediums. Within these discussions, it is interesting how very naturally, abstract ideas and concepts were articulated by all artists.full article.. https://sawidji.com/2023/07/27/nungkalik-festival-art-and-its-sacred-paradox/kalik-festival-art-and-its-sacred-paradox/)

The capitalist fantasy of endless cost-free growth bears no resemblance to the sophisticated Balinese cosmology of Kali-Yuga, which ends in cataclysmic dissolution; or to popular ideas of the world as ceaseless transforming.

Beautiful soft colours and visual rhythms highlight the composition, an interesting fusion of creative influences inherited from his culture and others inspired by other painters. First, the soothing blue sky makes way for graceful curving lines of brown and orange clouds. Next, our eyes are drawn to the conical shape of the volcanic peak and immediately follow the gentle rhythm of the smoke wafting from the crater. Sayur’s description of the smoke is a modification of the cloud motif taken from the Classical Balinese style.Harmonic colouration catches the eye. Two white herons on both sides of the smoke create a dynamic sense of movement, emphasising the bird’s motion of flight—our eye dances in tune, one-two-three, observing the icons. As we continue down the composition, the green foliage of the forest captures our attention. The visual rhythm changes again as our eye circumnavigates the leaves. The vertical lines of the tree allow the eye to sweep up and down the elongated trunks. To the right, the artist entertains us with other information, tall palms, curvaceous rice terraces, and round coconuts. He depicts a kite trapped in a tree as a simple, humorous distraction.The focal point of the composition is the three figures. A Balinese woman carries an offering upon her head. A pale-skinned female tourist with her palms raised and water pouring onto her head participates in a Balinese cleansing ritual called melukat. A monkey upon a brown rock watches on with a grin of delight as he pushes a toy boat into the spring. The swirling curves on the stone are the artist’s modification of a classical icon. The visual rhythms change as the eye flows around the arcs of the figures, each with differing dimensions, colouration and feeling.

I became interested in graphic design at school as the technology I learned easily, and I perceived this as a career opportunity,” Aditya told me. “When the pandemic began, I was unsure what to do. I began following a collective of artists from Jakarta, IZZY, on the Internet who streamed information about 3-dimensional digital art. This offered me new insights, triggering my imagination to the possibility of fresh creative expressions. I became dedicated to understanding 3D animation from free open-source platforms.”“Digital art rarely enters the normal art world and is mostly focused upon design and advertising. NFTs exist in an exciting and rapidly evolving decentralised and democratic art world, which eliminates the middleman. Anybody can become an artist or collector,” Aditya explained. “I have learned by watching online and joining Indonesian and international communities. I, therefore, do not need to enter the conventional Bali and Indonesian art worlds.”“I have minted (the process of uploading digital works onto blockchain platforms for sale) over fifteen NFTs and sold more than 10 works. I have sold one exclusive NFT on the ETH platform for 0.1ETH the equivalent of USD $300 and am making series of ten works. More than five of my series have sold out at the price of 3 Tezos, a cryptocurrency valued at about $5 for 1 Tezos. In addition, I have sold two NFTs on the secondary market and received royalties. The royalty mechanism is the advantage of NFTs over conventional art which exists in a domain rife with dishonest practices and at the highest tier is flushed with fake work.”“Many see NFTs as simply a cash grab. The technology is in its infancy, is unregulated, yet allows opportunities to create new artistic expressions and earn money.“ “When you talk to a human in 2035, you’ll be talking to someone that’s a combination of biological and non-biological intelligence,” says American futurist and Google’s Director of Engineering Ray Kurzweil. “I have set the date 2045 for the ‘Singularity’ which is when we will multiply our effective intelligence a billion fold by merging with the intelligence we have created.”“I seek to create unique NFTs with references to Bali to provide an alternative for the crypto art market,” he stated. “I believe what is important is artists and creatives learning about new technologies and the growing array of opportunities available to them. Such as new expressive genres, reaching new audiences and securing alternative income streams.” and securing alternative income streams.”)
Arie Smit + (Article from Bali Post newspaper May 1980 … Article from Bali Post newspaper May 1980Bali Post English Edition, May 1980Conversation with Arie SmitThe name is synonymous for many with the 'Young Artist' movement of Penestanan, Ubud- a name that inevitably crops up when one studies the modern evolution of Balinese art. Some people feel that the introduction of the 'Young Artist' movement has only led to a crass form of art whose only merit is commercial, others feel that it is too 'un Balinese'.Arie Smit himself doesn't elaborate much on his role in initiating this new school of art, he considers his role as that of a mere 'suggester'. He implies that he never taught the 'Young Artist's any fundamental concepts or techniques, insisting that he works not on "putting in but bringing out". He claims that he is more interested in the mental states and environment that influence art, the people and the culture that characterise it.His romance with the imagery of Bali is on-going: "Bali is a bulwark of images" and though he admits that this source of inspiration is eventually limited, he cannot shake his passion for it. Perhaps this is a direct result of his philosophy of art, a philosophy that has been tested and refined over the many years that he has spent in Indonesia (he became an Indonesian citizen in 1951).His fascination with Balinese imagery is linked with his interest in 'Child Art'. Fittingly his contribution to Bali has been to provide a vehicle for Naive Art in the ‘Young Artist’ movement.To explain the beginnings and motives for this he takes us back to the Fifties when he was in Bandung. At the time he was working for the Publishing house "Masa Baru” as a lithographer. One of his colleagues was the Dutch born Rina Marsman, a remarkable woman who had once tutored Queen Wilhelmina’s children in exile during WWII.Her extensive knowledge in the field of education led involvement in the area in Indonesia, a country she had learned to love. Rina Marsman had the foresight to include a formidable library of books on the subject amongst the possessions she brought to Indonesia. Arie Smit took full advantage of this opportunity to plunge into books on education and “child art”.Prompted by her, he began working part time teaching members of the Yayasan Beribu organization (made up of influential society women of the time) in education techniques. The Yayasan Beribu was chaired by Mrs. Mary Effendy Saleh, whose husband was in charge of Indonesia's railroads at the time. Rina Marsman was bringing the latest education techniques to this group who in turn were to teach children.In the spare time that he had Arie Smit managed to paint. Out of this set of circumstances grew the first real momentum towards the 'Young Artists'. At one point he was teaching lithography to Bandung's ITB (Technical Institute) students - and through this decided to mount an exhibition there. Via his contact with Mrs. Saleh he managed to distribute art materials to the children of railway workers. "These children drew what they saw around them, and the realities that they lived with. Children can only draw what they have experienced, their own mental environment - and it's spontaneous, non-intellectual...". It fascinated him to see the readiness with which children drew their world, the power of their observation - "there were locomotives, carriages, derailments (it was during the Darul Islam terrorist times), and we noticed that although fundamentally the same there were slight differences between the girls and the boys: the girls would sometimes put in a nurse!" The exhibition was a success. Again when staying near Puncak on the Jakarta-Bandung route he would notice how the village children had 'spontaneously' acquired a catalogue-like knowledge of motor vehicle makes and specifications. He set about experimenting, providing these children with art materials. Once more there was a spontaneous outpouring of the details of their environment, the same overwhelming power of observation. He undertook these experiments wherever he went in Indonesia.When he first arrived in Ball in 1956 he followed the same pattern. It proved to be a surprise: "It just all came pouring out. As there were no cars, ships, etc. then, they naturally drew what was in their environment. But the quality of their imagination was fantastic, the scope of the Balinese children was tremendous: dances, witches, cremations...” He noticed an emphasis on religion and ceremony, a factor he attributed to the wealth of the culture. But for him the most surprising aspect of these drawings was not the subject matter: “They did not depict objects from their immediate environment, or what was static in their surroundings, they almost always drew or painted what was about to happen. They were always anticipating events to come, such as the cremation next week or the dance the following night..” In all his experiments this 'anticipation' was unique to Bali: the tendency of children's imagination to project into the future.It was precisely this type of exotic material that was to prove of interest to foreigners in Indonesia. In 1960 Arie Smit chose Penestanan as the site for his major ‘experiment’, the ‘Young Artist’ movement. It was a poor village virtually owned by neighbouring landowners who used their labor. Arie Smit began by bartering their first paintings for art materials from foreigners working in Jakarta. “During Sukarno's time art supplies were almost impossible to obtain - this source of supplies was vital to the movement". It grew and grew, and other intermediaries began to play a more active role in the marketing (Jimmy Pandy was one who in Arie's memory was most helpful). On the other hand others had to be convinced and won over - yet when these dealers finally started marketing Young Artists they were surprised to see it become one of the fastest selling itemsAn exhibition in Jakarta several weeks after Gunung Agung erupted was a roaring success, partly because Bali was the focus of public sympathy at the time. For Arie Smit it was a relief to get away from the marketing once things were rolling along by themselves - he never relished the role of salesman. "But it was mainly the diligence and industriousness of these painters that kept me going, I felt that I couldn't let them down.”Despite the fact that the movement has now proliferated tremendously ("Nowadays even an expert would have a hard time wading through all these paintings”) he feels that the best of the Young Artist remain the same 40 that he started off - though they are hardly young anymore.Getting back to 'child art’ Arie states again that all naive painting is a spontaneous, symbolic rendering of the ‘environment’ of the painter. He points out that the Balinese have a tremendous power or vision, and feels that they have no need to work from models or to do life sketches. Arie feels that human beings were never the all-important center of the Balinese Cosmos, and says that the renaissance emphasis on man as the center of the Universe is completely foreign to the Balinese. Thus, at least for Arie Smit, the Young Artist is closer to real Balinese art than the art of those influenced by Bonnet: According to him the 'real Balinese' art is embodied in the paintings that came out of Batuan during the Thirties - the depiction of the various different worlds, the symbolic style. Young Artists, by painting from their own imagination in an essentially symbolic style are closer to this Balinese concept of art than any other ‘modern movement’.One of the important traits of ‘child art’ is the exemption of the intellectualization process - Arie worked mainly with young people under the age of 17, the age around which he says "comes an intellectual crisis. The intellect interferes with the direct expression of the imagination, sometimes to the point where hesitation blocks the expression completely." How did the children of the 60's, the young Artists of Penestanan, cope with growing up?He admits that they ran into a couple of crisis points, where ‘intellectual’ concepts began to interfere with their free expression.Despite his principle of non-interference he finally was compelled to step in: "I watched if for some time, letting it go. But at a certain point I had to re-suggest, to re-affirm their confidence in their own power of vision”.He is obsessed with the ‘power of Balinese vision' - the ability to absorb details, the power of the imagination to recall.When one questions the apparent stagnation of Balinese art, especially that of the Young Artists he admits that there is a need for new directions, not only now but continually. "But total freedom of expression is not an Asian trait. Asians, including Balinese, are more concerned with achieving perfection through repetition."He thinks that this maybe the reason that so many Western Art. movements run dry so quickly, because of the tremendous pressure to create something new all the time, every time! To the oriental there is no such stigma attached to repetition. His work with the Balinese has been one of careful balance between new inspiration and tradition, it was never easy. And not always welcome: once when residing in Ubud at Puri Kaleran, he tried to initiate some girls into painting. "It was back in the Fifties. Some of the girls were quite talented - but unfortunately the banjar community objected." Not only was painting not a woman's role, but for these young maidens to be working in the house of a bachelor was out of the question!Rio Helmiachelor was out of the question! Rio Helmi)
Alexander R. Cuthbert + (Bali is a global tourist destination havin … Bali is a global tourist destination having had the added descriptor paradise for most of the last century. But it is now transparent to most visitors that serious problems prevail across the entire local economy and built environment. The incoherence of development is largely to blame. Given the failure to generate a new Balinese architecture that matches the integrity of the old, Balinese urbanists are now caught in a Gordian knot where a unified traditional architecture remains, yet a new architecture is not forthcoming. How to untie the knot is the question. Architecture suffered major discontinuity when traditional building was largely abandoned in the face of progressive urbanization. The problem remains unresolved. The following paper represents a preliminary attempt to expose key issues. It suggests methods of moving forward. But a new momentum demands a new philosophy in the realm of urban theory, the foundation of all professional activity. No significant progress can take place without it. My attention is therefore directed to answering the question how can the transition be made from traditional Balinese architecture emerging from the dynamics of feudalism, to its conscious translation and accommodation within post-modernity, informational capitalism, and globalization? While the problem needs tackled at several levels – education, policy, strategy and enforcement, I suggest in conclusion that these should be framed within generic principles derived from vernacular transformations, a culture of critical Balinese regionalism, and an adaptation of the New Urbanist lexicon to a tropical environment.rbanist lexicon to a tropical environment.)

In the environment of Balinese language, there also live other languages, e.g. the national language, i.e. Indonesian language, foreign languages such as English, Japanese, Mandarin, Korea, etc. Balinese people nowadays have difficulties in using Balinese language so they use mixed languages, namely Balinese language with Indonesian language, with English language, with Mandarin or Korean Language, etc. This phenomenon might indicate that Balinese language appears to be marginalized. This paper aims at investigating what languages are used in Balinese language environment, since by tradition, ecological locality is very important to be explained because it has strong relation to the sustainability of the use of Balinese language, and natural environment with its diversity. Sociocultural approach, i.e. using the concept of language diversity related to the use of language is applied in this paper. In addition, qualitative method is applied by using observation technique and in-depth interview in collecting the data and information. Theories related to the use of language is used to analyze the data.The result of the study shows that the marginalization of Balinese language appears to exist because there are various ethnic groups of immigrants who live in this village. The village of Ubud is already occupied by expatriates who deliberately come to Bali and settle at Ubud. The reasons why they choose Ubud Village, among others is business they own in tourism sector, the occurrence of intermarriages between Balinese people at Ubud and foreigners (such as Italian, Australian, French, Spaniard, etc), Balinese arts and cultures,etc. This condition affects the choice and use of languages.n affects the choice and use of languages.)
Brett Hough + (Bali’s history is made up of many contradi … Bali’s history is made up of many contradictions. Some of these are intrinsic to Balinese culture and society; others are due to the experience of colonisation by the Dutch and the result of incorporation into the nation-state of Indonesia. Others still stem from forces of modernisation, globalisation, tourism and consumerism. The authors of Bali’s Silent Crisis: Desire, Tragedy and Transition highlight these contradictions to reveal underlying problems that continue to shape, influence and in certain ways, haunt daily life in Bali. They contend that these forces and associated changes have resulted in deep psychological and cultural trauma that remains largely unacknowledged – hence a ‘silent crisis’ – and runs counter to the discourse of Bali as a paradise.The authors have lived and worked in Indonesia over many years, with much of that time in Bali. With academic backgrounds in cultural studies and health promotion they bring an interesting perspective to their subject and display an obvious concern for the long-term psychological health of Balinese caught up in the profound processes of change, violence, and desire that are encapsulated in the subtitle of their book. From the outset we get a very strong sense of their motivation in researching and writing the book and their commitment to Balinese friends and colleagues. It is clear they have a great deal of affection for their subjects and come to their conclusions based on a long-term engagement with Bali.The full review of the book is available in: https://www.insideindonesia.org/review-bali-s-silent-crisis?highlight=WyJiYWxpIiwiYmFsaSdzIiwiJ2JhbGkiLCJiYWxpJyIsImJhbGknLiIsIidiYWxpJ3MiLCJiYWxpJywiLCJiYWxpcycuIl0%3DIidiYWxpJ3MiLCJiYWxpJywiLCJiYWxpcycuIl0%3D)

Richard Fox + (Grounded in ethnographic and archival rese … Grounded in ethnographic and archival research on the Indonesian island of Bali, More Than Words challenges conventional understandings of textuality and writing as they pertain to the religious traditions of Southeast Asia. Through a nuanced study of Balinese script as employed in rites of healing, sorcery, and self-defense, Richard Fox explores the aims and desires embodied in the production and use of palm-leaf manuscripts, amulets, and other inscribed objects.Balinese often attribute both life and independent volition to manuscripts and copperplate inscriptions, presenting them with elaborate offerings. Commonly addressed with personal honorifics, these script-bearing objects may become partners with humans and other sentient beings in relations of exchange and mutual obligation. The question is how such practices of "the living letter" may be related to more recently emergent conceptions of writing—linked to academic philology, reform Hinduism, and local politics—which take Balinese letters to be a symbol of cultural heritage, and a neutral medium for the transmission of textual meaning. More than Words shows how Balinese practices of apotropaic writing—on palm-leaves, amulets, and bodies—challenge these notions, and yet coexist alongside them. Reflecting on this coexistence, Fox develops a theoretical approach to writing centered on the premise that such contradictory sensibilities hold wider significance than previously recognized for the history and practice of religion in Southeast Asia and beyond. of religion in Southeast Asia and beyond.)
