The Permanent collection of Outdoor Art

See the permanent collection housed in the Underground Gallery >>

The 14 acres of garden and architecture at Rimbun Dahan provide the perfect setting for a number of examples of outdoor art, ranging from grand sculpture and murals to smaller installations of found objects. All the works were created by former resident artists at Rimbun Dahan.

BABYLONi-ANTS by Indonesian artist Arie Dyanto is a three-panel mural painted onto the southern outside wall of the dance studio. Each panel is 8m wide.

 

This piece, also created by Arie Dyanto in 2005, is an image airbrushed onto scrap car part, and is hung on the wall of the classic car garage.

 

Asialink artist Matt Calvert's untitled work on the lawn west of the main house is made from found glass shards and was installed in 1999

Peace, by 2003 Malaysian resident artist Jasmine Kok Lee Fong, is carved from a single block of white Langkawi marble.

 

 

Asialink resident artist Brian Ash created this untitled work in 1999 from aluminium and mirror louvres to reflect the vertical nature of the young dipterocarp grove in the southwest corner of the garden.

 

Sakinah (above) was the first large outdoor sculpture by Malaysian resident artist Ahmad Osni Peii to be installed at Rimbun Dahan, in the Bulatan Plong in 1999. Two other pieces, including Geliat Nusantara (the red piece below), were installed in 2006. All three are made of painted aluminium.
