Agung Rai Museum of Art (ARMA) presents "360 Degree of Yaari" an exhibition featuring more than sixty works by an American artist who has been living in Bali for the past five years. The exhibition features evocative abstract compositions and figurative works of the internationally acclaimed Yaari Rom.
"360 Degree of Yaari" will be on show at the Agung Rai Museum from June 10, 2008 to June 24, 2008.
Yaari's artwork employs a "psychedelic" language and imagery influenced by femininity and children. The energy inhabiting Balinese nature and local culture also largely influences work. "Energy is one of the main aspects of creativity and the journey is the process," explains the artist.
