Story Behind the Art:-
To be beginning, my father is a wood sculptor. He taught me how to choose good woods, process the woods, until the finishing stages and nowadays is rarely young generation wants to continuing the sculpture business, so that the reason I was interested to learn about making statue or sculpture especially. Yes course, there are some products in the kind of Balinese carvings. In the making most of all are still using hands and with a bit machine help, the materials used are also obtained from several areas in Bali. Three in total, which are: two as a sculptor and one for finishing. The life of Balinese people who are doing hectic with religious ceremonies makes many people do not have enough time to work in the office, so this business can provide a work place for Balinese people of doing a flexible working hours and can be done at home, in main addition to introducing the famous Balinese parasite sculpture its uniqueness to all over the world. I use woods like Suar, jempinis, and parasite. The materials can be obtained from local timber traders. Parasite wood is one in the kind of woods that was not originally used in sculpture but only as firewood, I was see the enormous potential with the used of parasite wood because they've unique shapes. Yes, I made the product from the raw materials to been finished. Honestly, I was inspired from my surroundings ranging from animals, trees to Balinese culture. My design is different because mostly I have combine parasite wood with other shapes that make the product unique. My hopes is can make my business sustain dan grow so that I can create more business opportunities and to introduce to the public about parasite sculpture from Bali. I am not married yet, if in the future I have children, the hopes is my children have to learn about how to be responsible to themselves and will continuing my business, I think they have to because they raise and born in Bali so make sure their culture has sustains.
