- Painting in bali in the last three decades has veered towards abstraction.this abstraction is based on narrative and icons,including symbolic and non-symbolic elements, with the use of colour as a major component. This development is rooted in Balinese Hindu art and traditional cultur. Philosophical aspects of the Balinese way of live provide a major source for the Balinese artist’s creativity: therefore, even if the painting is very abstract,it is likely to be strongly based in Balinese Hindu culture. Structures of life in Bali are rooted in a hierarchical order. Based on the idea of balance between the marco cosmos and the micro cosmos, Balinese people aim to live life in harmoni. The various dimensions of life according to Balinese philosopyb often inspire the visual artist.
