Our family was underprivileged, and I wasn't able to continue my studies after graduating from senior high school. In 2002, there was a very difficult moment in my life. I was starting a small shop in the market with a bank loan. Suddenly, a bomb exploded in Bali's tourist area! People suffered a lot because most work is dependent on tourism. Bali became so quiet, and no visitors or customers came. I think this was the toughest time in my whole life. My island is rich in artistry, so my family taught me to make sculptures. I started by watching them carving wood at home. I was excited with the final results and worked hard at learning how to create them. By creating these beautifully detailed sculptures and masks, we'd like to introduce our traditional culture to the world. I hope our sales will grow and people worldwide will come to know our culture.'...
