The artwork of Sasmita is motivated on a fundamental level by the need to forge a connection with her past. This sentiment is clearly manifested in her various art­works that incorporate narratives from classical Balinese literature, and elements of traditional Balinese aesthetic conventions. Nevertheless. Sasmita departs from the canon of conventional Balinese art by producing artwork that often castigates the pervasive sexual and social in­equality that is so deeply ingrained in Balinese society. She wishes to trace marginalized narratives of women in particular, who once played a key role in Balinese societ­ies and held influential positions.
