Enchanting Bali. The Journey of Gill Marais and Ilona Zboray through the Secrets of BaliThe present publication brings together these two women travellers, embracing a period of almost hundred years. Two women closely bound by the continuity of the themes they immortalised. Ilona Zboray and Gill Marais travelled to Bali and conveyed their experiences under entirely different circumstances, but what they have in common is the fact they were largely documenting exactly the same themes. Ilona Zboray through her writing, and Gill Marais through her photographs. In the exhibition Trance / Dance / Bali, visitors are confronted with a different aspect of Bali, this earthly Eden popularly known as a tourist paradise — they are brought face to face with everyday life and mortality, ceremonies, the powers of evil, and the struggle against demons. The descriptions penned by Ilona Zboray and the photographs taken by Gill Marais draw us into the unique culture and unparalleled beauty of Bali through the medium of images and words.
