Nyaman Gallery located in the heart of Seminyak, one of the most bustling areas on the island. It represents both local and international artists, all carefully selected and uniquely talented.
Nyaman Gallery combines modern and traditional vibes, exhibiting an eclectic range of artworks: from street art and urban photography to traditional sculptures, from enchanting glass works to homemade silver jewelries.
One of the gallery's representing artists is Quint, a quiet young man from Jakarta, who was not born into an artistic family yet chosen by art. Originally enrolled in design school, at a point, he discovered the exhilaration and freedom of making art in public spaces.
Quint’s street art has fascinated passers-by along back alleys of Kuta and bustling streets of Seminyak. Each piece carries a message of love and features monochromatic, feminine figures flashing witty gestures.
For Nyaman Gallery, Quint's artworks capture the spirit of street art - and his signature maidens on canvas.
“He is in love with life. His work is a true reflection of a dreamer, who never stops conjuring tricks with painting, colors and shapes. He is the conjurer of the soul.”

A former photographer turned painter, Jean-Michel Aucler`s deep love and passion for Asia, particularly Thailand, serve as a continued source of inspiration. Large displays of colors co-exists with vibrant lines on crumpled paper, symbolizing the artist`s inherent sense of harmony and balance.
Aucler`s work is both provocative and delicate, enchanting you into a dichotomy of the primeval and civilized worlds.
Aucler is a French artist who alternates his life and work in France with frequent travels to Asia, especially to Thailand and the island of Bali.
Inspired by his extensive travels, Aucler`s work forms a bridge between the Eastern and Western traditions.

'Nyaman' means comfortable in Indonesian.
Nyaman Boutique came to life from the love of garments that depict comfort and elegance. As simplicity becomes harder and harder to find in this busy bustling world, Nyaman Boutique is committed to bring it back.
Nothing compliment sleek garments like a good range of accessories. For this very reason, the boutique also displays a collection of sophisticated silver jewelries, all handmade by Balinese artisans. Then came along the treasures, the wonderful sculptures and stylish home ware.
With the growth of the merit, in February 2015, Nyaman Boutique`s artistic sister was born, resonating similar light.
Nyaman Gallery is a gentle and tasteful rebel. With one foot gracefully out of the box, it represents a handful of carefully selected artists with very unique and different styles. The gallery is also housing a collection of handmade treasures from around Indonesia.

The gallery understands that art does not necessarily get along with quickness. Time and patience are needed to nurture creative growth and progress. And only by this way we can truly see the hidden gem of an artistic mind. Carrying this consciousness, the gallery sustains an exclusive, familial long term relationship with its artists.
'Nyaman' means cozy or comfortable in Indonesian. It is the axis of the gallery, the feel irradiated to the audience the moment they step in the space. The gallery believes that art is literally in everything, in every detail. To be able to see and enjoy it, one needs to be in a centered and easeful state, for he/she will need to be aware of his/her surroundings. Therefore, one needs to feel "nyaman". Feeling comfortable also will help the audience to accept the intrigues and strong impacts the art often projects.

You may have seen his whimsical stencils on the street corners of Bali. This upcoming and talented street artist is a hidden gem, definitely not someone you`ll meet every day. Nyaman Gallery is honored to be hosting a good range of his latest works on various mediums.
Stencil art needs a great deal of patience and precision. By now, Quint is experienced in beautifying walls under serious pressures. He has been through early morning police raids and gun points in Japan. The result is his artworks all over the world`s main cities such as Paris, Berlin, Tokyo and Jakarta.
Impressive, different and inspiring, this is how Nyaman Gallery defines his artworks. YOKII is known for his aggressive experimentations and innovations, combining art and mad science. His expertise is to apply advance techniques such as screen-printing, air-brushing, stenciling and hand painting on various mediums from fabrics to plywoods.
Recently, YOKII and partner, Bunny Bone, created a striking 9 meter wall art for a VIP domestic lounge in Ngurah Rai International Airport. The impressive artwork captures the visual impact of Bali`s old soul through a modern eye, mixing fast and slow, natural and industrial, in a very personal way.
YOKII is also a clothing line, designed and handmade by the artist himself.
A new-born to the art world, Bunny Bone only started to seriously draw three years ago. Nyaman Gallery spotted the soft yet wild femininity in her drawings and took her under its wings.
The girls come with fragile features and elusively erotic. The eyes are piercing calmly. Each character is alluring yet distantly mysterious.
Today Bunny Bone is exploring different styles and techniques, as can be seen in her impetuously serious flirtation with colors, positive and negative space and more complex compositions. An artistic journey is clearly well on the way and Nyaman Gallery would like to share it with you.
