Damai by Nyoman Handi

Description

Damai by Nyoman Handi Yasa. Oil on canvas. Exhibited in ‘World Without Sound, an Anthology’ at Sawidji Gallery April – May 2023.

“In life, there are two things good and bad,.. they always partner with each other. Where there is life there is continuity, there is destruction then there is repair. You cannot draw a general conclusion from singular events.”

‘Senyap’ and ‘Damai’ ( Silence and Peace) by Nyoman Handi are oil on canvas paintings exhibited in ‘World Without Sound, an Anthology’ by Nyoman Handi Yasa. Nyoman Handi is a contemporary artist whose art explores environmental and social themes on canvas and mixed media platforms. His work is a beautiful fusion of new-generation social consciousness spoken through a visual language that echoes our ancient beginnings. The themes discussed in Handis’ works consistently explore Natures’ balance.

This central theme of the artist is interwoven in his reflections about a world without sound. That the silence is in fact simply part of the balance.

“Whatever our condition, our situations.. whatever we have, our potential.. that is what we should develop,..we cannot compare to others. We should cultivate the gifts we have been given. From Nature’s perspective, we are the same, but our behaviour towards Nature is not equal, as our behaviour toward each other is also not always fair.”
