HARTA presents Barehands Residency 2026: Jejak Alami, Jiwa Membumi, an exhibition bringing together artists from Malaysia, Japan, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Timor-Leste to celebrate cross-cultural exchange and contemporary artistic perspectives across Asia.

Inspired by nature, cultural identities, and personal experiences, the exhibition showcases diverse works developed through the artists' creative encounters across three residency spaces: Akaldiulu, Pantau Iraga, and Chetak 17.

Established in 2010 by Malaysian printmaker Juhari Said, Barehands Residency continues to foster artistic collaboration, friendship, and cultural understanding through shared creative experiences.

Through this exhibition, visitors are invited to explore how art connects different cultures, perspectives, and experiences across borders.

Join us from 3 November to 29 November 2026 at HARTA.
