Tumbuh Rimpang
Exhibitions
‘Tumbuh Rimpang’ is a group exhibition inspired by the spirit of cultivation, a diction that reflects the daily spirit in our society. Here, the idiom of planting is explored through various perspectives and alternative narratives. Interrelated subjects such as history, tradition, community culture, technology, ecology, and others present themselves as a rhizome that directly and indirectly expands the narrative beyond just our imagination of the activity of farming. Suppose this idiom is borrowed as a metaphor, in that case, the works of the artists we present in this exhibition are developed from the idea of planting in their imagination of nature. Not as a single narrative, but rather creeping, rooting in the field they discovered themself.
Nonfrasa, founded in 2021, is a contemporary art gallery dedicated to engaging emerging artists and fostering leftfield work from established artists in Bali and Indonesia.
We explore the artistic range and context of art, culture and history through narratives and practices that actively expand modern and contemporary identities in Bali.
We are open daily, all year round, from 10am–5pm. Visitors are welcome to walk in during opening hours (last entry at 6.30pm) and no prior booking is necessary.
