This hand-carved wooden sculpture features an elongated, minimalist silhouette of a giraffe, characterized by a slender neck and a narrow rectangular void at the center of its body. Crafted using the traditional Ukir technique, the figure is mounted on a sturdy square base and finished in a uniform alabaster grey tone. The surface is adorned with a rhythmic arrangement of hand-painted “eye” motifs—concentric circles in charcoal, moss green, and ochre—that mimic natural markings through a modern, graphic lens. This piece reflects a contemporary evolution of Balinese artisanal craft, blending a sleek architectural form with a playful, repetitive surface treatment that emphasizes verticality and sophisticated earth-toned patterns.
