Wood statuette, 'Bumblebee Dance' Art Gallery Sculpture Wood - Asian Culture ![]()
This lovely
mahogany piece is hand-carved by the talented Nyoman Subrata, illustrating
the enchanting "bumblebee dance." A young girl imitates a lotus
flower in the traditional romantic dance between a young woman
and man. The blossoming lotus attracts the bumblebee as a
beautiful girl would a man. Subrata skillfully captures the delicate
and graceful movements of the dance as he complements the
girl's attire with sequins. An impressive attention to detail is
evident in the elaborate headdress crowned with lotus flowers. How
Bali treasures every form of art can be palpably felt
in this exquisite work. This item is individually carved
by hand and belongs to a special collection created by
the artist.
