We call our Studio Showcases the ‘walk-through catalog’. A chance for attendees to physically meet each studio’s representative piece to see if it sparks a desire to visit. Almost like speed dating!

We ask participating studios to select something that represents them and what attendees can see during a studio visit. This year, one studio even made an entire miniature replica of their studio!

The 2025 Curator’s Note:

Transformation and change are unstoppable forces, but in an era dominated by immediacy, tech and Al where does the human element exist? The handmade, tactile, unfinished and imperfect.

Ubud itself is a paradox-ancient and everchanging But behind the streets teeming with tourists, down hidden pathways, behind ornate doors, lives a whole world of creativity.

Artists whose works tell stories of the gods and nature, an ongoing conversation with the divine To creatives from all over the world who have made Ubud their home-inspired by an energy that still permeates this cultural heartland of Bali.

This year's Ubud Open Studios Showcase brings diverse and multidisciplinary artists together across two renowned galleries - BIASA ArtSpace and Nonfrasa-as- as we activate the Sanggingan area.

Explore the works, map your 3-day arts adventure, and then get out to meet these exciting artists in their studios.

Leave the online behind and experience this unique human connection- with art, with place, and with the people who keep Ubud's creative spirit alive.
