Traditional Art

Traditional art in the island's culture begins with deep-rooted inspiration drawn from nature, mythology, and spirituality. Using locally sourced materials like wood, clay, fabric, or metal, artisans shape each piece with tools and methods passed down through generations. The process involves detailed carving, painting, or weaving, depending on the medium. Natural dyes and handmade pigments bring life to symbolic motifs lotuses, deities, and folklore scenes. Techniques like lacquer work, batik, or mural painting reflect a harmony between function and beauty. Each creation is carefully refined, polished, and finished by hand, resulting in timeless works that preserve heritage, reflect identity, and celebrate enduring craftsmanship.
