26.5 x 67 x 2” thick.
Impressive hand-carved wood panel from Toraja, Sulawesi. This carving symbolizes peace and happiness. Great as an art piece or headboard. Circa 1960. The live edge varies from 21.5” to 26.5” wide.
This carving was handmade 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 costs 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.
