Nyoman Subrata transforms suar wood into an extraordinary tribute to beauty and dance in this intricately carved piece depicting a Janger dancer. The elaborate headdress is elaborated with meticulous detail - crowning the poised expression of a dancer who evokes pride in Balinese tradition. One of many ceremonial dances, the Janger dance is actually the only one performed by both men and women together - twelve men dance in a somewhat aggressive manner as the women sway from side to side as they sing. A flawless piece enhanced by the natural grain of the suar wood, this dancer is certain to bring delight to the connoisseur of Balinese customs.
