Ida Bagus Indra is a
young, self-taught, dynamic Balinese artist whose work is striking and
emotional. His aesthetic and spiritual experiences give him a strong grip on
the essence of movement, energy and color that infuse the spontaneity of his
canvases. Ida Bagus Indra's immense creative spirit show through in his unique,
innovative approach to Balinese culture, including traditional and sacred
dance, priests and Balinese ceremonies bound to the Hindu faith and philosophy
of life. He combines the sacred with familiar aspects of everyday life in
revealing and inspired ways, including images of children, women and family
that touch the heart of every human being.
Ida Bagus Indra's work is
a reflection of his deep and penetrating observation, artistic journeys, and
ever-changing understanding of himself as a part of society, his environment,
and also his spiritual relation to his Creator and his ancestors.
Born in Denpasar on May 9,
1974 into a family with a long artistic tradition, including his father who is
acknowledged as a leading cartoonist of his generation, IBI found his way in
the Balinese art world with great enthusiasm.
Ida Bagus Indra launched
his first exhibition in 1996 and has not looked back. Ida Bagus Indra is set to
become a significant and classic artist of the 21 st century. His canvases are
bold, direct. Like his young nation, built on ancient cultures, IBI unites
tradition with ultra-modern style. The sweep and energy of his strokes erupts
from deep within to illuminate precious moments common to us all, with grace,
humor, and compassion
