In Berkaca (2026), emerging Balinese artist I Wayan Dendy Permana Putra explores the profound act of self-reflection through a heavily textured, deeply painterly language. The title, Berkaca—meaning “to look in the mirror”—provides the conceptual framework for this evocative composition, which centers on a solitary figure in profile nestled within a layered, abstract architectural space.

Dendy masterfully builds the canvas through heavily worked, tactile layers of acrylic paint, blending an organic, earthy palette of moss green, warm ochre, and deep crimson. Eschewing sharp linework, he instead utilizes fluid, overlapping blocks of color and rich texture to construct the environment. A subtle clock face in the upper right quadrant introduces a poignant focal point, inviting the viewer to contemplate the relationship between self-understanding and the passage of time.

Presented by Senja Living, this piece captures a moment of brilliant personal and stylistic evolution from a young artist with an impressive exhibition history. Dendy’s work has been shown across Bali, Surabaya, Yogyakarta, and Jakarta, including notable presentations at ARTJOG (2022), Art Jakarta (2023), and an international exchange festival in Korea (2022). Berkaca stands as a highly distinctive acquisition for contemporary fine art collections and a compelling, soulful addition to curated, artful interiors.
