Alia Swastika and Citra Sasmita talk about her collaboration with Kamasan maestra Mangku Muriati for their SB16 project 'Timur Merah Project XV: Poetry of the Sea,Vow of the Sun' (2024), unravelling female figures and narratives in Balinese history and mythology. They reinterpret the historical form of Kamasan painting through a feminist perspective, dismantling binaries such as traditional ritual art versus contemporary art. Join Swastika as she speaks to Muriati at her studio and gain insights into themes of decolonisation, translation and equitable access to knowledge.  'Timur Merah Project XV: Poetry of the Sea,Vow of the Sun' is on view at Calligraphy Museum from 6 February until 15 June 2025.
