A mother holds her child tenderly aloft in this suar wood sculpture by Bali’s Made Wirata from the NOVICA Mother and Child Collection. Typical of the broad spectrum of materials and techniques from this international collection, Wirata’s work reflects the traditional Balinese sri bunga style of the wood carvers art.
Like other artists from Bali, Brazil and West Africa who contributed pieces to this collection, Wirata started from humble beginnings in his local village of Gianyar to now find his work gaining an international reputation. And, like his compatriots from all over the globe, his desire is to preserve his craft and bring prosperity to his friends and neighbors through his art.
