EVENT DESCRIPTION
Curated by Galuh Sukardi, an independent curator based in Bali, Thresholds explores the interwoven cycles of life, death and transformation through a diverse range of mediums including painting, sculpture, textile, drawing and silverware. The exhibition brings together works by Galuh Anindita, Arahmaiani, Christine Ay Tjoe, Nadiah Bamadhaj, Kei Imazu, Ines Katamso, I Gusti Ayu Kadek Murniasih (Murni), Citra Sasmita and Jennifer Tee.
Each artist charts their own journey of transformation—spiritual, political, physical or mythological—forming a chorus of distinct yet interconnected voices. Rooted in Indonesian traditions, and amid contemporary ecological, spiritual and social shifts, the exhibition takes the black-and-white Balinese poleng cloth as its point of departure: a symbol of balance and coexistence between opposing forces.
Thresholds, curated by Galuh Sukardi, is on view at White Cube Hong Kong from 30 October 2025 to 10 January 2026. Concurrently, the exhibition extends to The Hari Hong Kong until 31 March 2026, featuring a selection of works installed throughout the hotel’s public spaces.
