Antique statuette of a sacred dancer – Indonesia, hand-carved wood
This ancient wooden statuette depicts a sacred dancer in a stylized pose inspired by the ritual traditions of the Indonesian archipelago. Hand-carved from dense, dark wood, it is a testament to a folk art imbued with spirituality and symbolism.
Her dynamic demeanor, her costume adorned with finely carved details, and her traditional headdress evoke the ceremonial dances practiced in temples, at the crossroads of devotion and artistic expression. The deep patina and traces of time reinforce her mystical charm.
A rare work, ideal for collectors of ethnographic statues or lovers of sacred art from Southeast Asia.
