The image shows a tall, 130 cm high, and 25 kg sculpture from Bali, which appears to be influenced by the Art Deco style. The sculpture is carved from stained wood and depicts a standing figure with distinct Balinese characteristics, such as traditional attire and an ornate headdress.
The Art Deco style originated in the early 20th century and is known for its elegant, streamlined forms and geometric patterns. This Balinese sculpture seems to blend traditional Balinese artistic elements with the sleek, stylized forms typical of Art Deco design.
The figure’s pose is graceful and slightly elongated, with intricate detailing on the headdress and clothing, showcasing the craftsmanship typical of Balinese wood carving. Art Deco influences can be seen in the smooth, clean lines and the stylized representation of the figure.
Such a piece is a striking addition to a collection of Art Deco or Balinese art, appreciated for its unique fusion of cultural styles and impressive size and weight. It reflects both the rich artistic traditions of Bali and the global influence of the Art Deco movement.
