ABOUT THE EXHIBITION:
Our third Mini Exhibition featured series of illustrations by Cecillia Hidayat, an introvert who moved to Ubud after 30 years living and hustling in Jakarta.
This mini exhibition is titled “Also Bali”, featuring a series of illustrations depicting literally mini creatures inhabiting this island.
Also Bali looks at the quieter side of the island, where everyday human moments unfold alongside the small lives we often overlook. Ceremonies, gestures, and daily routines take place in the presence of these seemingly insignificant creatures that quietly share the same space with us. By placing them side by side, this series reflects how our lives move in parallel with nature, how they often mirror one another, and how these unnoticed details are just as much a part of Bali as the things we celebrate and showcase.
Also Bali is a quiet observation and personal reflection on how some things become the face of Bali while others, no less important, are easily overlooked.
PROFIL:
Cecil is a freelance illustrator based in Ubud, Bali. An introvert at heart, she finds it easier to express herself through drawings than words. She draws inspiration from small, often overlooked moments in everyday life, and most of her works reflect a quiet appreciation for the beauty in the mundane. When she’s not drawing, Cecil can be found strolling through rice fields, greeting stray dogs, or observing tiny critters hidden in Ubud’s greenery.
