FAQs

Originating from Kamasan village in Klungkung, Bali, this classical style of visual art illustrates Hindu epics such as the Ramayana and Mahabharata in distinct registers using traditional two-dimensional iconography.

Traditionally, artists execute these works on handwoven cotton cloth or bark paper, utilising natural mineral and botanical pigments bound with water and organic resins.

Authentic pieces feature crisp black ink outlines drawn with bamboo pens, flat application of natural earth tones, split-level narrative registers, and stylized character features derived from Wayang shadow puppet theatre.

Display the framed textile as a focal point above a console table or sideboard, paired with natural timber furniture and muted neutral tones to complement the earthen pigments.

Keep the framed artwork out of direct sunlight to prevent fading of organic pigments, maintain stable indoor humidity levels to avoid textile degradation, and fit UV-filtering glass.
