Located along the bustling Jalan Raya Ubud, Studio 22K is a leading textile and arts gallery in Bali and is one of aNERDgallery’s partner. With more than two decades of operation and experience, the gallery is filled with traditional textiles from across the Indonesian archipelago. The cozy, wooden-walled gallery is best known for their fine batik, jewellery and Indonesian indigenous craft collection. This collection includes one-of-a-kind, museum-quality, natural vegetable-dyed batik artworks that are produced from as early as 1930s to today.

Often featured in international publications, Studio 22K receives plenty of compliments for their unique service, which is to translate complex meaning behind the textile. The owner especially hand-picked all the works directly from artists across Indonesia. Each art work has individual history, thoughts, energy of the craftsmen or, in one word, a soul. Shop attendants will be glad to discuss Indonesian textile heritage and local Balinese culture with all visitors.

Similar to aNERDgallery, this Ubud-based gallery partner pride themselves in being able to share the story and the beauty of Indonesian textile heritage to a wider international audience.

A trip to the gallery is highly recommended for people who love the beauty of vintage textiles and want to spend a uniquely special time learning about Indonesian history through textiles. Of course, for all the eager enthusiasts who yet to have a chance to visit Bali, feel free to browse the exquisite collection from Studio 22K, right here, on aNERDgallery.
