Wood statuette, 'Three Piled Yogis' Art Gallery Sculpture Wood - Abstract Romantic Family ![]()
A fascinating example of Wayan Rendah's magnificent sculpting,
this piece represents a profound technical and spiritual undertaking as
three yogis balance miraculously. Carved from crocodile wood, the trancelike
yogis bow their body and press their heads against open
palms, rocking back and forth on folded legs. Yogis are
holy men and great mystics, many of whom also possess
the gift of prophecy. They are beloved figures in the
countryside, and villagers will feed and care for the yogis
as they roam from region to region, searching for perfect
purity and knowledge through meditation, ecstatic trances, and frightening self-mortification.
