Indigo (Seri Nila #2)
Ni Wayan Penawati, born in 1996, is a talented Balinese painter whose artistic journey flourished during her master's degree studies at the Indonesia Institute of Art Denpasar. As a traditional Balinese woman, she is deeply connected to diverse cultural customs, yet the presence of modernity in her surroundings has influenced her artwork, creating a unique synthesis of contemporary life and traditional values. For Penawati, color holds profound significance, acting as a powerful tool to evoke emotions and stimulate imagination. In her monochrome artworks, there is no defined focal point. Unlike reading words on a page, there is no prescribed direction for the viewer. Instead, viewers are invited to immerse themselves in the entirety of a single hue, understanding and experiencing the artwork as a whole. Through this approach, color stands independently yet harmoniously with form, creating a captivating visual narrative
