Fierce and intimidating, the mythological Barong Bangkal protects those around him. Translated as "old boar," Bangkal is identified by his pig-like features. Made Mulyani captures the essence of this Barong in an acacia wood mask that is exquisitely carved and detailed with traditional Balinese motifs. In Hindu mythology, Barong come in many different forms and are mostly represented as animals such as elephants, tigers, pigs, ravens, goats and bulls.
This handmade wooden wall mask is a perfect option for wall decor. Each piece is hand-finished, resulting in a truly one-of-a-kind work of art. A fantastic choice for home or office decor. You can also gift this handmade mask to your loved ones on various occasions. The beautiful patterns on the mask showcase the hardwork done by the artist.
I was born in 1975 to a wood carver family in a small town in Bali. We live in a rural area of the island that is so peaceful and where kinship bonds are strong. Our family's life was financially limited, therefore I wasn't able to continue my studies after senior high school. I'm a simple woman who enjoys cycling and aerobics. Friends know me as an honest woman, a hard worker and a person who likes helping others. I married in 1997 and have two children who made my life become happier and perfect. Since then, there have been many changes in my life. I have more responsibilities now but what's most important to me is my children's future.
