LEGIAN, balitourismnow.com – Pullman Bali Legian Beach presents Pullman Xchange: Symphony of Elements on 23 October 2026, bringing together painting, sculpture, fashion, dance and music in an evening that celebrates creative expression and collaboration.
Presented in collaboration with the Mangurupa Art Community, this annual exhibition explores the beauty of diversity through a vibrant interplay of colours, forms, materials and perspectives. By bringing together distinct artistic disciplines in one setting, the exhibition creates a space where different creative voices can connect, interact and find harmony.
Celebrating Acclaimed Indonesian Artists
In collaboration with the Mangurupa Art Community, the exhibition is guided by Dewa Putu Ardana, Chairman of the community, with Ida Bagus Putu Radnyana serving as Exhibition Project Lead for Pullman Xchange: Symphony of Elements at Pullman Bali Legian Beach.
At the heart of the exhibition is a collection of paintings and sculptures by participating Mangurupa Art Community artists, featuring two distinguished Indonesian artists with international recognition: Tatang Budi Santoso (Tatang B.Sp) and I Ketut Putrayasa.
Renowned for his symbolic and thought-provoking visual narratives, Tatang B.Sp has showcased his work internationally, including at Olympic Fine Arts 2008 in Beijing and the 6th Beijing International Art Biennale. His artwork Borderless is also part of the collection of the Olympic Museum in Lausanne, Switzerland.
Balinese sculptor I Ketut Putrayasa brings an international perspective to the exhibition, drawing on projects and exhibitions in Belgium, France, Singapore and Turkey.
His achievements include receiving Best Final Project Artwork at ISI Denpasar and creating The Octopus Queen, a monumental 25-metre bamboo installation that earned recognition from MURI in 2025 as Indonesia’s largest woven-bamboo sculpture.
He was also involved in the 5,555-dancer Kecak performance at Berawa Beach, which received MURI recognition in 2018.
Fashion, Movement and Music Expand the Creative Dialogue
As the evening unfolds at Alun-Alun Garden, the exhibition extends beyond the visual arts into movement, fashion and music, creating a multisensory celebration of creativity.
Dance Generation, a Bali-based dance group and quarter-finalist on Indonesia’s Got Talent 2023, will bring energy to the evening with a contemporary performance that blends dynamic choreography with acrobatic elements.
Fashion adds another dimension to the experience through presentations by Debz Collections and EP Art by Eka Plawa. The collections will be brought to life by models and choreography from Lenny Hartono Management, whose portfolio includes New York Fashion Week 2023, Bali International Fashion Festival 2023 and Miss Teenager Universe 2024.
Through its costumes, artistic direction and stage presentation, EP Art by Eka Plawa will further explore the interplay between traditional Balinese influences and contemporary creative expression.
Completing the evening’s artistic programme, DJ Herllyna will set the musical atmosphere, bringing another creative dimension to the experience as painting, sculpture, fashion, movement and sound converge in the spirit of Symphony of Elements.
“Pullman Xchange: Symphony of Elements reflects the beauty of bringing different creative voices together in one space. Each artist and discipline has its own identity, yet when they come together, they create new connections and perspectives. Through this exhibition, we hope to offer our guests and the wider community an engaging, inspiring and meaningful experience, while continuing to provide a platform for Indonesian creativity,” said Ravi Khubchandani, General Manager of Pullman Bali Legian Beach.
Pullman Xchange Extends the Experience Beyond Opening Night
Through Pullman Xchange: Symphony of Elements, Pullman Bali Legian Beach continues to foster connections between artists, guests and creative communities, creating opportunities to exchange ideas, discover new perspectives and experience art in new ways.
Beyond the opening evening, visitors can continue to explore a selection of paintings and sculptures displayed throughout the resort’s lobby, allowing art to become an integral part of the guest experience. In this way, Pullman Xchange extends beyond a single evening, keeping the creative dialogue alive within the resort. [*/buda]
