About the artwork

Located near Goa Gajah and Ubud, Pura Samuan Tiga means "the Temple of the Meeting of the Three." In the 10th century, a meeting of three prominent Hindu priests (Brahmanisme, Waisnawa and Shiwaisme) took place in the temple of Samuan Tiga, which culminated in a formulation of guides for construction of three praying houses at every pekraman in Bali thereafter. The main gate and tower were designed by I Gusti Nyoman Lempad - a famous artist in Bali.
