"Nestled in the expansive, open views of Dago Atas, Selasar Sunyaro Art Space offers a truly contemplative and serene escape from the bustle of Bandung. From the moment you arrive, the atmosphere is instantly calming, inviting visitors to slow down and immerse themselves in a unique blend of art and nature.

One of the most striking aspects of Selasar Sunyaro is its seamless integration with the natural environment. The gallery doesn't just display art in nature; it feels like an organic extension of it. Even on a hot day, the pervasive tree shade provides a wonderfully cool atmosphere, making exploration a comfortable and delightful experience. This deep connection is immediately evident with the memorable "blue tree" that greets you upon entry, setting a captivating tone for what's inside.

The blend of nature and art is masterful throughout the space. You'll find natural elements woven directly into the artworks, from integrated tree trunks forming part of installations to tree branches seemingly protruding directly from the walls. This organic approach extends to the gallery's design itself, which beautifully utilizes earthy colors and materials – think natural wood, clear glass, soothing greys, and warm browns, often punctuated by a surprising splash of red that adds a vibrant touch. The result is a space that feels deeply embedded in its surroundings.

Selasar Sunyaro boasts an eclectic mix of installations, mixed media pieces, and paintings, reflecting the diverse talents of artists from Bandung and across Indonesia. The curation of the artworks is both thought-provoking and engaging, touching on a range of contemporary topics that invite reflection and discussion. With four distinct gallery spaces to explore, there's a rich variety of artistic expressions to discover.

The staff at Selasar Sunyaro contribute significantly to the positive experience. Despite being primarily Bahasa speakers, they were incredibly helpful and knowledgeable, going out of their way to explain the artworks, which was truly wonderful and appreciated. For those looking to extend their visit, a relaxing cafe and coffee space is also available, providing a pleasant spot to unwind and digest the artistic journey.

I spent a very fulfilling two hours exploring Selasar Sunyaro and would highly recommend it to all art lovers. It's not just a gallery; it's an experience that nourishes the soul, offering a unique harmony between human creativity and the beauty of the natural world."

"the place is very cool, when ordering tickets there was no queue at all, came on a weekend and there were quite a lot of visitors but it was also orderly. htm nya 45k dan itu udah bisa masuk 4 tempat, in the first place, there are quite a lot of explanations about the characters, and in the second place, there are paintings and there is also "sejuta mata" where you can take photos inside for 1 minute and you have to be alone, the third one is there are also paintings and behind it there is a library, and the last one is there are paintings too, seru poll sih kalo emg yg bnr² suka art, btw tema nya pasti ganti² ya :)"
