Biography
In English
Mangku Muriati is the daughter of Mangku Mura (1920-1999), one of the prominent Kamasan painters. Since childhood, she followed her father to paint by coloring typical wayang paintings in Kamasan Village, Klungkung.
Then she studied at the Art and Design Study Program (PSSRD), Udayana University Denpasar, Bali and after graduating returned to painting the Kamasan style at his home. The number of female artists who pursue Kamasan style painting is not as many as men.
In 1990 at the age of 32, Muriati became a ritual leader or Pemangku at the temple, a sacred place where she lived, Banjar Siku, Kamasan.
Kamasan is the only village in Bali where this traditional art form has not been replaced by a new style. Although loyal to the classical Kamasan art tradition, in his work he also mentions social and political developments in Bali.Murniati chose to live in her house in Banjar Siku, not Banjar Sangging, which is the place where Kamasan painters generally work. He is considered to have proven that he can move his banjar because his works are ordered and collected by many parties from within and outside the country.

Walau setia dengan tradisi seni rupa klasik Kamasan, dalam karyanya ia juga menyinggung perkembangan sosial dan politik di Bali.Murniati memilih tinggal di rumahnya di Banjar Siku, bukan Banjar Sangging yang menjadi tempat berkarya pelukis Kamasan pada umumnya. Ia dinilai sudah membuktikan bisa menggerakkan banjarnya karena karyanya dipesan dan dikoleksi banyak pihak dari dalam dan luar negeri.
