Wood mask, 'Barong Dance'

NANCY

Mar 19, 2022

Magnificent!

Barong is now busy protecting the house, frightening evil spirits but grinning heartily at the rest of us. He has added a colorful and life-enhancing presence that is a delight to encounter daily. After his arrival I particularly enjoyed watching Barong dance rituals on YouTube and highly recommend them to anyone contemplating ordering the mask since you’ll understand his significance and character better. Incidentally, I had no trouble hanging him on the wall with a tiny bit of ingenuity.

Another wonderful piece of art by a gifted artist

This is on a wall in my office along side the artist's "Man of Wisdom" mask. They make a great pair and at times I reflect on meaning of the art in my life.

Attractive!
