Dalam sambutannya, Koordinator Program Studi DKV ISI Bali, Bapak Bayu Segara Putra, S.Ds., M.Sn., menyampaikan bahwa kegiatan ini dimaknai sebagai bentuk penerapan pembelajaran berbasis praktik yang menekankan hubungan antara pengetahuan, keterampilan, dan nilai-nilai kemanusiaan.
Dijelaskan bahwa tema “Pramana Bhuwana Kalyana” memiliki makna pengetahuan untuk kesejahteraan dan kebaikan semesta. Melalui tema tersebut, proses belajar dan berkarya diharapkan dapat dijalankan sebagai wujud dharma — upaya membangun kesadaran dan kebajikan melalui karya visual.
Disampaikan pula bahwa teknik cetak tinggi mengajarkan kesabaran, ketelitian, dan kepekaan terhadap bentuk serta tekstur. Nilai-nilai tersebut dianggap relevan dengan semangat Pramana Bhuwana Kalyana, yaitu bahwa pengetahuan dan keterampilan yang dikembangkan tidak hanya untuk diri sendiri, tetapi juga untuk memberi manfaat lebih luas bagi dunia seni dan masyarakat.
Melalui workshop ini, diharapkan wawasan dan keterampilan mahasiswa dapat semakin berkembang, serta mendorong lahirnya karya-karya desain yang mengangkat nilai budaya dan filosofi lokal dengan makna universal.

Prof. Dr. Sanor Klinngam, Presidential Advisor of Phetchaburi Rajabhat University, Thailand, during the signing of the B-GAAD Declaration, Tuesday (October 28) at the Sabha Citta Mahottama Hall, Design Hub Building, ISI Bali.
The highlight of the forum was marked by the signing of The B-GAAD Declaration: Caksu–Bhuwana–Citta (Noble Vision for Shining Futures)—a declaration affirming the shared vision of art and design universities across the Asia–Pacific to cultivate solidarity, collective responsibility, and cross-cultural collaboration in shaping a sustainable future for the arts and design. Through this declaration, the leaders agreed to establish the Asia Pacific Axis of Arts and Design Higher Education Network, a platform designed to foster fraternity and collaboration across nations through knowledge exchange and academic mobility.
The declaration encompasses five principal missions, referred to as the Panca Mahadharma:
Strengthening partnerships to advance and sustain academic excellence;
Committing to the welfare of society and communities;
Collaborating in the preservation of culture and local heritage;
Actively participating in maintaining ecological balance; and
Promoting creativity and technological innovation in the fields of art and design.
These five missions serve as a collective framework guiding inter-institutional collaboration toward a vision of art and design education that is excellent, humanistic, culturally grounded, and sustainable.
The declaration was signed by all participating representatives, including leaders of ISI Bali and delegates from Thailand, Australia, South Korea, the United States, Malaysia, and Singapore. The signing ceremony symbolized a shared commitment to positioning B-GAAD as a forum for dialogue, partnership, and ongoing collaboration among art and design universities in the Asia–Pacific region in realizing The Panca Mahadharma Mission.
Rector Prof. Dr. Wayan “Kun” Adnyana emphasized that the B-GAAD Leaders’ Summit represents a concrete step in strengthening the position of ISI Bali and Indonesia as a global hub for higher education in art and design. “Through the B-GAAD Declaration, we are collectively kindling a light for the future of art and design—one rooted in humanity, culture, and sustainability,” he affirmed.

The Indonesian Institute of the Arts (ISI) Bali once again established itself as a central hub for higher education in the arts and design within the Asia–Pacific region through the Bali–Global Axis of Arts and Design (B-GAAD) II 2025, officially opened on Tuesday (October 28) at the Kirtya Sabha Mahottama Auditorium, ISI Bali. This year’s B-GAAD carries the theme Tutur–Bhuwana–Tuwuh (Myth–World–Memory), emphasizing the significance of myth as a living body of knowledge that shapes human wisdom and civilizational identity.
The Rector of ISI Bali, Prof. Dr. I Wayan Adnyana, stated that B-GAAD represents ISI Bali’s initiative to establish a strategic international platform for the actualization of ideas, connecting higher education institutions in art and design across the Asia–Pacific region. “B-GAAD is not merely a meeting forum but a melting ground of ideas, concepts, and visions that strengthen Asia–Pacific solidarity toward new innovations,” he remarked.
This year, B-GAAD II is joined by eleven universities, three art institutions, and one government organization from across the Asia–Pacific region, including: the National Academy of Arts, Culture and Heritage (ASWARA), Malaysia; Kazakh National Academy of Choreography; Lasalle College of the Arts and Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts (NAFA), Singapore; Phetchaburi Rajabhat University, Thailand; University of Western Australia (UWA); Kyoto Saga University of Arts and Okinawa Prefectural University of Arts, Japan; University of Iowa, United States; Jatiya Kabi Kazi Nazrul Islam (JKKNI) University, Bangladesh; and Hankuk University of Foreign Studies (HUFS), Republic of Korea. Additional support came from the Agung Rai Museum of Art (ARMA), Komaneka Art Gallery, Misato City, Japan, and the Wiswakarma Museum, Gianyar.
In his opening address, the Rector underscored that mythology—as articulated by Edith Hamilton in Mythology: Timeless Tales of Gods and Heroes (1969)—reflects the way humans have thought and felt since ancient times. Through mythology, humanity rediscovers its profound connection with nature—with the earth, sea, trees, flowers, and hills—a relationship that has gradually faded in the modern age.

As a manifestation of its commitment to strengthening networks of collaboration and sustaining academic excellence, B-GAAD II produced the Panca Mahadharma B-GAAD Declaration, titled Caksu–Bhuwana–Citta (Noble Vision for Shining Futures), signed by leaders and faculty members from art and design higher education institutions across the Asia–Pacific. The declaration articulates five core missions:
To strengthen partnerships for the advancement and sustainability of academic excellence;
To commit to community welfare and social responsibility;
To collaborate in preserving culture and local heritage;
To actively participate in maintaining ecological balance; and
To foster creativity and technological innovation in the arts and design.
The declaration was signed by prominent leaders and academics, including:
Prof. Dr. I Wayan Adnyana (Rector, ISI Bali, Indonesia); Asst. Prof. Dr. Sanor Klinngam, Dr. Kitsada Tungchawal, and Asst.

Marking the opening of the Bali–Global Axis of Arts and Design (B-GAAD) II, the Indonesian Institute of the Arts (ISI) Bali presented an intermedium performance titled Ananta–Mahaboga–Anantya on Tuesday (October 28) at the Kirtya Sabha Mahottama Auditorium. The performance formed part of the Bali–Global Performing Arts Map (B-GPAM) program, featuring an interdisciplinary collaboration that merged dance, music, animation, and costume design.
Carrying the concept “The Earth in the Memory of Balinese Civilization,” the work revitalized the myth of Anantaboga, a colossal serpent believed to uphold the world and symbolize prosperity and abundance. Through cosmic metaphors, Ananta–Mahaboga–Anantya offered a renewed interpretation of the myth, presenting a dance that was both immersive and evocative—visualizing nature’s tragedy as it blossoms into a vision of renewed life and hope.

The work was presented as a multi-medium performance, combining elements of movement, animation, and costume that intertwine to construct a rich visual and emotional experience for the audience. Under the coordination of Dr. I Gede Yudarta, SSKar., M.Si., the production brought together a creative team from various study programs at ISI Bali, embodying the strength of interdisciplinary artistic collaboration.
One of the most striking elements of the performance was the performers’ costumes, which were embedded with LED lights that illuminated and dimmed in synchrony with the dancers’ movements and the animations displayed on the LED screen. This interplay of lighting and digital visuals created a dynamic atmosphere, blurring the boundaries between the dancers’ bodies and the digital imagery, forming a living, interactive unity in real time.

The performance featured an exquisite fusion of Balinese gamelan and modern orchestral music, serving as a dramatic conduit throughout the presentation. The spiritual resonance of the gamelan intertwined with the grandeur of the orchestra, weaving a sonic tapestry that enriched the visual atmosphere and deepened the work’s expressive meaning. The performance offered a multisensory experience that was both stirring and contemplative, where tradition and technology converged in a captivating harmony.
The choreography was created by Kadek Diah Pramanasari, M.Sn. and Ni Nyoman Ayu Kunti Aryani, M.Sn.; costume design was by Ida Ayu Ari Mahadewi, M.Sn. and Ni Putu Dyah Pradnya Candriasih, M.Sn.; while the visual animation was developed by I Wayan Agus Mahardika, M.Sn., I Made Hendra Mahajaya Pramayasa, M.Sn., Gede Lingga Ananta Kusuma Putra, M.Sn., Muhammad Ragil Zulkifly, Anak Agung Istri Kirana Maheswari, Andi Adytia Moh Firmansyah, I Gede Krisnayaka Saskara, I Kadek Angga Dwipayana, Armansyah Rizki Alfahkri, I Dewa Putu Nova Andika Putra, and I Gede Mahendra Dana.
The music and gamelan components were directed by I Wayan Diana Putra, M.Sn., Ni Putu Hartini, M.Sn., Guntur Eko Prasetyo, M.Sn., Putu Lukita Wiweka Nugraha Putra, M.Sn., and I Gede Raditya Yudhistira, M.Sn. (ISIBALI/Public Relations)
