Biasa Art Space, Seminyak: A Contemporary Art Haven

Italian-born Susanna Perini is the creative mind and braun behind Biasa. She started the business when Seminyak was a quiet neighborhood of Bali with rice fields as far as the eye could see.

The Biasa concept knows no borders, and from humble beginnings 20+ years ago, they now operate out of six dedicated retail venues throughout Indonesia. The most famous spot in Seminyak, the Biasa + space on Jalan Raya is a vibrant hub of art and contemporary design with a big and eclectic mix of lifestyle, art, and fashion on offer. Biasa is an amazing place to visit in Bali.

The first level, which is also a bustling retail location, focuses on menswear, womenswear, sarongs, scarves, and accessories, with a special mention going to the exceptionally huge collection of vintage sunglasses. The team incorporates and carefully curates art on the second level to present numerous Indonesian and international artists all year round. You can buy clothes for yourself and your loved ones and take them home as a souvenir from your Bali vacation.

BIASA clothing has been renowned for years for its interesting cuts mixed with the best natural fabrics, full of artisanal details - aficionados of the label say that is what distinguishes this label. The hand dyeing and weaving processes employed during the production process emphasize the product's handcrafted origin.

Every Friday night, Biasa + hosts a market in their lush garden, where you can expect to see more of what they sell on a daily basis, as well as traditional Balinese beverages and locally sourced organic products. Some of Bali's most outstanding rising musicians and performers provide entertainment, this is surely one of the nicest spots in Bali to enjoy during the evenings. If you're seeking something lovely to adorn yourself or your home's walls, they could just have what you're looking for.

If you're wondering what to do with the remainder of your day and what you can do when your shopping and art adventure is over, here's a pocket list of the top locations to visit in Bali:

Double Six Beach or Seminyak Beach

After your tour at Biasa Artspace, you could proceed to Double Six Beach or Seminyak Beach, which are just a 5-minute drive away. Lay out a mat and soak up the rays.

St. Michael's Protestant Church

Located less than 10 minutes away, the St. Michael's protestant church attracts tourists who come to wonder at its architecture and to say a quick prayer amidst the peacefulness of the sea.

Upside Down World

Around a 12-minute ride from Biasa is this Upside Down World where furniture is positioned on the roof and guests can acquire an upside-down shot. It's an excellent location for a group portrait.

Theatre Art Gallery

Another creative spot not to be missed in Bali is the Theatre Art Gallery. The collection displays brightly colored puppets used in Balinese puppetry. Consider viewing folklore through a frame; it's worth a look. Apart from these, there are several possibilities to explore along the sea, such as cafes, breweries, water sports, and so on.

The best way to get to Biasa Artspace is by private taxi, which takes around 20 minutes from Denpasar Airport. Because it is closer to Seminyak Beach, it is easier to find the art space.

Biasa Artspace hosts theme-based shows by diverse, innovative artists. The latest exhibition, Connected, highlights parallels between people's thoughts and experiences. While the current exhibit engages the audience in one's experiences, past exhibits such as the Human Tool, Parade, Things, and so on created quite a buzz among the audience for their experiences.

The brand's vacation attire is typically elegant and classy.

The art space is tastefully decorated with works of art and paintings, creating a great artistic vibe. It's a lovely sight to enjoy.

 This is one of the more unusual things to do when visiting Bali. Biasa has four locations in Bali.
