Bali\u2019s unique culture and artistic traditions are deeply intertwined and have fascinated countless international artists and anthropologists since the 1920s. Later on becoming one of the world\u2019s top tourist destinations, Bali\u2019s identity has become inseparable from its openness to the world.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Artist Designer In Residence programme (ADIR) was conceived with the belief that creativity is nurtured and enriched by the meeting of different cultures, people of all horizons and different worldviews. The residency aims at bringing together the quality and originality of the \u201cFrench touch\u201d and Bali\u2019s unique and rich craft traditions.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n French designers will be invited to immerse themselves into Bali\u2019s unique culture for one month while discovering the island\u2019s natural materials and traditional techniques in a direct dialogue with Balinese artisans. Based on their experimentations and interpretations, the designers will create a collection of objects as a sensitive response to this unique experience. The collection will be produced as a collaboration between the designers and CushCush Gallery and will be presented at various design fairs and events in Indonesia and France.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n The residency will be punctuated by a series of presentations, discussions and workshops to provide an opportunity for the designer to directly engage with the local creative communities and the public.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n As a culmination of the residency, the designers will give a presentation about their Balinese journey and creative process in conceptualizing their collection. Following that event at CushCush Gallery, the designers will embark on a one-week roadshow that will take them to <\/span>Surabaya, Yogyakarta, Bandung and Jakarta, to continue sharing their inspiring journey <\/span>with creative communities and professionals.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n With the generous support of:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n JOURNEY VIDEO<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/cushcushgallery.com\/ccg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Logo-for-Web-300x71.png\"){kind=logo}
