Murniasih, I Gusti Ayu Kadek

(1966 - 2006, Indonesian)
Ubud, Bali, Indonesia, 1966 – 2006.

She is a self-taught painter, also studied with Mundo, an Italian painter living in Ubud. She then developed her traditional techniques from Mokoh, a well known Pengosekan painter who is creating a genre parallel to the current sosio-cultural circumstances. Most of the paintings are figurative, with a strong nuance of traditional techniques. The narration of her thoughts appears through the main figures. Although some of these are depicted as ordinary objects; animals, trees, or other living creatures, the most conspicuous form is often the central figure, which then represents a personificationn of herself. Her first solo exhibition was held at Cemeti Art House, Yogyakarta.
