Gian Manik’s monumental painting Tabernacle (2025) is currently on show in After Ruins, a group exhibition at Non Frasa, Bali, Indonesia.
Co-presented with DESA, the exhibition at Nonfrasa reflects on how artists approach cultural memory. Drawing from the symbolism and framework of ruination, the exhibition seeks to articulate the ways in which artists to trace the remnants of past cultures to make meaning of the present. The group presentation of new sculpture and painting from artists throughout Australia and Southeast Asia, After Ruins crystallises shared efforts to grapple with memory, both fragmented and symbolic. In yoking these connections between the memorial and ruinous, artists are inviting viewers to reconstruct collective past, fashioned as monuments of shared experiences.
