The Malu Dong Community is pleased to announce its upcoming fine art exhibition, “Art for Change: A Celebration of Bali’s Natural Beauty,” at Sudakara Artspace on April 10, 2025. This special exhibition is a collaboration between the community and local Balinese artists, designed to raise awareness about environmental issues, particularly the growing challenge of plastic pollution in Bali.
The exhibition features a carefully curated collection of paintings that not only captivate the viewer but also convey powerful messages of purpose, reflection, and environmental consciousness. Each piece encourages visitors to pause and consider their role in protecting Bali’s environment and securing the island’s future.
The Malu Dong Community, a Bali-based environmental organization, is dedicated to reducing plastic waste and preserving the island’s pristine beaches, marine life, and public health. Through initiatives such as Malu Dong Buang Sampah Sembarangan, the community continues to promote responsible waste disposal and environmental sustainability across Bali.
This fine art exhibition is an integral part of that mission. By engaging with and supporting the artwork on display, visitors will experience Bali’s rich cultural and artistic heritage while contributing to a larger movement for environmental change.
“We are proud to host this exhibition at Sudakara Artspace. Art has the incredible power to inspire, provoke thought, and drive change. Through our collaboration with the Malu Dong Community, we hope this exhibition sparks meaningful conversations about environmental awareness and the need to protect Bali’s natural beauty,” said Ricky Putra, COO of Sudamala Resorts. “The artists’ powerful expressions invite all to not only appreciate the art but also reflect on their role in preserving the world around us.”
“This exhibition goes beyond showcasing the talents of local artists. It is a call to action for us all to reflect on our relationship with the environment,” added Komang Sudiarta, Founder of the Malu Dong Community. “Through the creative expressions of these artists, we hope to inspire change and encourage people to join the movement to reduce plastic waste and safeguard the island’s natural beauty. In this context, art becomes a powerful tool for raising awareness and creating lasting impact.”
The exhibition will feature the works of 13 talented local artists: Uuk Paramahita, I Made Gunawan, Eni Astiarini, I Made Somadita, I Nyoman Loka Suara, Made Bayak, Ida Bagus Gde Surya Dharma, Jango Pramartha, Agus Kama Loedin, Made Kaek, Ni Way, Ni Luh Vonidewi, and A.A. Putu Oka Astika. It serves as an invitation for art lovers and environmental advocates to come together, appreciate Bali’s beauty through the eyes of its talented artists.
