| Description: | "My ideas were unconventional at the time, developing abstract figures inspired by the form and texture of the piece of wood I had selected. Combining traditional themes with modern poses and more sensual shapes."
"I was born in Bali on the 17th of June 1973. I am the oldest of seven children, in a family consisting of four brothers and three sisters.

| Description: | The northwest coast cultures were rich and diverse. We have representations of the Kwakiutl, Coast Salish, Nu Chah Nulth, Tsimshian and Haida people. The diversity between northwest coast natives reflects itself in their woodcarving and mask making. Today, the art has adapted itself to glass, printmaking and bronzes. These new art forms are destined to become tomorrow's tradition. | | hits: | 303 | | Added on: | 28-Jul-2002 | | Comments: | 0 |
