Amolas villa bali

Amolas Canggu Balinese Muralism

Amolas Canggu Villa is one of the most popular lodging destinations in Canggu, Bali. To capture the essence of Amolas Villa, we created murals in every guest room, as well as in the lobby and café. Each mural in every room of our villa has a story behind it. We always strive to provide the best for our clients solutions that help them tell their stories and we hope you enjoy this brief overview of the concepts they’ve entrusted to us.

Lobby

"Amolas, Beautiful Water Spring"

The mural in the lobby depicts the meaning of the word “Amolas.” “Amolas” means a beautiful spring or a beautiful oasis. The spring water flowing through a traditional clay jar represents Balinese traditions, culture, and the atmosphere of Bali.

The hand of a woman wearing traditional accessories is holding a container of Balinese holy water. This image symbolizes beauty, grace, fertility, and purity qualities often associated with holy water.

Room A

"Together We Alive"

The first mural is in Room A. It depicts a person as a secondary subject and a turtle as the main subject; the turtle is swimming while the girl is surfing beneath it.

Speaking of Canggu, there are a lot of surfers, and we have to coexist with the marine life we won’t get in each other’s way.

“So let’s live together in peace, in the beautiful waters of Bali under the shining sun.”

Room B

"Surfing the Culture"

Currently, culture and tourism go hand in hand that go hand in hand, thus creating This island has become more vibrant and more beautiful.

That’s why the photo of the purple sky and the sun

lost in the meaning of a “beautiful” message.

Since this depicts a scene of men with men (tourists), the choice of purple makes it neutral and not too masculine. This mural depicts the interaction between locals performing the Melasti ceremony on the beach, while a man (a tourist) who is surfing watches them as the sun sets.

Room C

"Sunset Women"

The “Sunset Women” mural depicts typical tourist activities in Bali, such as sunbathing, while showing the Melasti ceremony with the women performing their duties. The depiction of all these women’s activities, combined with the orange hues of the sky, creates a more powerful impression.

Tourism and cultural activities blend with daily life, making the scenery even more captivating in Bali.

Room D

"Uluwatu's Guests"

Uluwatu is a temple located in southern Bali. This mural depicts a tourist admiring the Uluwatu Temple against the night sky. The evening sea breeze captures the breathtaking view of the temple by the ocean. It embodies culture, nature, and humanism.

There are some curious and mischievous monkeys. They usually show up in the Uluwatu area and steal some of the tourists’ belongings; in this case, they stole an iPhone, it’s really sad.

Room E

“Starlings in Pura”

This mural depicts Pura Ayun, a temple located in the highlands that is a remnant of the Mengwi Kingdom in Bali. Pura Ayun is surrounded by beautiful scenery.

So we’ve included some rare Bali starlings. They capture the unique blend of nature and cultural heritage in Bali that can be found in every corner of the island.

Room F

“Ricefield is Lyfe”

In Bali, you’ll find beautiful rice fields pristine and breathtaking terraced fields. This mural depicts an evening scene, with farmers holding their rice harvest alongside egrets.

These birds give off a natural and organic vibe, just like the feeling we always experience when we’re in Bali. This mural combines nature, human interest, and animals, and captures the atmosphere of dusk in a village.

Room G

"Kecak in Tanah Lot"

The Balinese Kecak Dance is one of the most famous cultural performances in Bali, so we included it in this mural. We also depicted the dance in front of Tanah Lot Temple, which is a sacred site with breathtaking views.

Beaches, temples, dance, and sunsets—the combination of these elements evokes a mysterious, passionate, and emotional atmosphere. Painted in a style that blends semi-realism and impressionism.

Room H

“Nunas Lungsuran”

This mural depicts the joy of sharing

(Nunas Lungsuran) after a Balinese traditional ceremony.

This mural depicts the view in front of Lake Beratan in Bali. The fog and light suggest that this scene takes place in the morning, during the morning fog.
