About this item: Wayan Rendah transforms a single block of suar wood into two faces. Their expressions convey emotional duality, one is sad and one is happy. Rendah carves the mask by hand with skillful artistry as he sets the faces in a way similar to the traditional Yin yang image of complementary duality. - Wood grain and color can vary slightly About our 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.'
