The Craft Hotel Ubud

Object No. WOO-032
Dual Kuda Laut (Seahorse) Sculpture
Physical Description:

This hand-carved wooden sculpture features two stylized seahorses, or Kuda Laut, positioned face-to-face in a symmetrical composition that creates a central circular void. Meticulously shaped using the Ukir technique, the figures display rhythmic, scalloped ridges along their curved backs and coiled tails, which merge seamlessly into a rugged, slate-grey base suggesting a weathered ocean reef. The piece is finished in a high-contrast polychrome palette, with a cobalt blue spine transitioning into a stark white body adorned with a dense, uniform pattern of small blue triangular “scales.” This artisanal work reflects a playful marine-inspired aesthetic, utilizing clean anatomical lines and disciplined brushwork to transform traditional Balinese woodcraft into a vibrant, modern sculptural accent.
