While on his daily walks along the coast of Sanur, Bali, the ocean and the beach became a source of inspiration and a treasure trove for Montreal-based Indonesian artist Ari Bayuaji. Weaving the Ocean delves into aspects of sustainability and art making, and honours the time-honed weaving skills of the local artisans to recreate textiles from repurposed materials. The sculptural textiles Ari creates from his workshop are a visual rhythm of rediscovery as he breathes new life into found objects. Since 2021, the project has made its impact felt in major cities including Bangkok, Taipei and comes to Singapore anew in 2022.
