Nonfrasa presents Riar Rizaldi’s participation in Crash, Crush, a group exhibition at Inside-Out Art Museum, Beijing. As part of the exhibition, Riar Rizaldi presents Larung (2024), a 5-minute song and music video composed in collaboration with Wahono and Stella Gareth.
In Balinese, SAMATRA carries multiple meanings. It can refer to a simple offering, a brief greeting, a modest welcome, or something given just enough. Inspired by these meanings, the exhibition invites us to rediscover the quiet gestures that deepen our relationships with nature, one another, and the world we share.
Equipoise explores the quiet tension of maintaining balance in a world that is constantly transforming. In his latest solo exhibition, Wayan Upadana reflects on the human condition through sculptural forms that are at once playful, contemplative, and profoundly familiar.
The poetry written by Deyu and the visuals of Kharma, combined in a performance, will convey messages, expressions, and the transformation of emotions into acceptance.
Surviving a storm is like guessing what lies ahead, and with that in mind, this exhibition is designed to celebrate the desire to continue growing amidst drought.
Moving fluidly between documentary, horror, and science fiction, the film explores the volatile human-nature dynamics on Mount Merapi. Forged through collective filmmaking where the factual, scientific, and magical intertwine, the narrative tracks a mystic defying paramilitary violence, a volcanologist predicting a cataclysm, and a sand miner confronting an extraction economy. The presentation showcases a three-channel video fragment and process archives.
Join From Memory to Reinterpretation: Activating Archives Through Contemporary Practice, a collaborative workshop led by Chiara Goia and Sanur Archive, exploring how historical photographs and personal archives can become living materials for contemporary storytelling.
In the late 1920s, researchers and collectors captured Bali's ceremonies, rituals, gamelan orchestras, and everyday life. They pressed recordings into shellac and stored it all in archives abroad. For decades, this material remained largely inaccessible to the island it belonged to. Arsip Bali 1928 has spent years repatriating it from collections across Europe and the US, restoring it, and returning it home.
Starting this July at Klymax, Bali 1928: Live Score Cinema resurfaces that footage every month through the end of 2026 — rare archival film with a live score and live narration, each edition a meeting of past and present.
In Bali, cloth is more than fabric — it is a bridge between sekala and niskala, the seen and the unseen. Textiles such as bebali and cepuk are woven into daily offerings, rituals, and ceremonies, carrying stories of spirituality, community, and place.
For this upcoming Feature Friday, we invite you to explore how Balinese cloth traditions continue to hold cultural, spiritual, and communal life together.
