“My name is Ketut Sudantara, and I was born in 1986 in a small village in Bali called Batubulan. My parents had four children, and I am the youngest. My father was a wood carpenter and worked in a wood gallery for a long time. He made many good sculptures before he retired. Sometimes during his free time, he still tries to teach me something about wood sculpting.
“When I was a child, I was happy and played like any other kids around my neighborhood. But there was a moment which I cannot forget: I was hit by a motorcycle, that accident broke my leg, injured my head and also opened a cheek wound. I was 5 years old, if I’m not mistaken, and I had to be hospitalized for over a month.
“Like other kids around my neighborhood, I went to school until I graduated from senior high school. And then I continued to study computers after I graduated. I worked as a technician in a cellphone service center. After a while I left to work at 5-star hotel as a CCTV operator under the security department.
“But, once the pandemic hit the world, then the hotel where I worked was no longer providing the usual salary. That made me think about how to get another income; and when I saw my father work with wood, I realized that I also have the ability to produce quality wall décor. And then my mother-in-law, who is also a woodcarver, suggested coloring the panels with antique colors, which is not common and might attract people to look into my works.
“I am married, and thank God, I am blessed with two daughters. The life of a father is so different compared to when I was still single. Now, my concentration is all about my family and children. I work hard to provide for them. Sometimes when I feel tired or unmotivated, then just listening their laughter or giggles makes me happy and motivated again.
“I hope that by joining Novica, I can offer another style of wood panels and wood sculptures, surely with good quality.”

A beauty that now adorns our main entrance for all to see. We love this carved relief panel titled, 'Antique Lotus'. The artist is a master of mood to be sure, as this subtle, colored panel conjures up a sense of spirituality and peace. The work is exceptional and I believe a bargain for the price. Thank you Ketut S., for sending us a piece of your mastery.

I love it! At first, I wasn't sure if its look will fit our living room. Once hung, it was awesome!! I was really impressed. It brightened up a corner of our living room where I've always wanted to hang something besides another framed art as we have too many of them. So beautiful and perfect where it is now! Thank you so much! Great job!

I hung this beautiful art on the wall above my work monitor.... it's luster and intricacy reminds me both that complexity is natural and can be beautiful, and to breathe while counting points... essential part of my daily calm! THANK YOU for creating such a meaningful and fulfilling work!
