The slender supple forms of a couple romancing are expertly rendered by master carver, Wayan Rendah. This abstract artwork has been created from the beautiful noble wood known as suar. This piece represents a new creativity and the fusion of style that results from global art contact. A harmonious piece with a gentle glowing presence for any home setting.
About the Artist: Wayan Rendah's father began teaching him to sculpt when he was a boy. 'Balinese woodcarving touches me very deeply. I have learned a variety of arts in Bali, such as gamelan dance, but carving a piece of wood gives me an incomparable sensation,' he says. 'After I finished school, I studied further because I needed more experience, and the tools and material I needed were beyond my financial reach. Exploring the abstract world refreshes my mind in creating new carvings.'
The Wayan Rendah Artisan Collection is brought to you by Novica in Association with National Geographic. This beautiful piece was handcrafted by Wayan Rendah in Indonesia. An artisan story card will be included with your purchase.
