An understanding of “madness” not as chaos, but as attentiveness. The willingness to listen closely to instinct, memory, and the shifting pulse of the present. In the world of Batuan painting, madness becomes a quiet force: a small opening where intuition slips through and tradition begins to breathe differently.

Rooted in the richness of Indonesian visual traditions yet open to contemporary sensibilities. A meditative offering created by Bagus ‘Gonk’ of his hometown of Bali and his final solo presentation before stepping away from the island’s familiar rhythms. An atmospheric journey into the liminal space of twilight, where light fades but memory glows.

A curated selection of artworks presented exclusively on Dröm’s online catalogue. Although not included in a physical exhibition organised by Dröm, these works form part of our extended curatorial framework, supporting broader access, documentation, and sustained engagement with artistic practices.
