Antique hand carved architectural panel from Toraja Land. This carving symbolizes the protection of the home. Originally used as an exterior panel. Framed in a minimalist black teak wood shadow box. Great art piece.
This antique carving was sourced in the spirit of wabi-sabi, a Japanese philosophy that beauty can be found in imperfection and impermanence. It is a beauty of things modest and humble. A beauty of things unconventional. It is the opposite of vulgarity. The cost of achieving this kind of minimalism are seemingly inconsistent with its mission of aesthetic humility. This kind of luxury is for a select few: The Emperor of Japan had a wabi garden. Wabi is for people who already have a lot.
