UOS25 Studio Showcase at BIASA ArtSpace & Nonfrasa Gallery
Transformation and change are unstoppable forces, but in an era dominated by immediacy, tech, and AI, 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 Gallery, as we activate the Sanggingan area of Ubud.
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.

Why Ubud?
The desire to see behind the art, to see the Balinese magic up close, isn't anything new. Before Ubud became synonymous with yoga tourism, it was THE place you came to see art and craft.
Here, art isn’t confined to galleries or pedestals; it spills into the streets, hums in the workshops, and dances in the hands of local artisans.
Whether you’re sketching in a sunlit courtyard, learning the ancient craft of batik, or simply soaking in the vibrant energy of a traditional dance performance, Ubud doesn’t just show you art—it lets you become part of it.
This is where creativity isn’t just observed; it’s felt, shared, and celebrated. Ready to dive in?
