Mask Painting Experience

Mask Painting Experience by The Mask Maker, I Komang Mega

Element: Earth

Spend the day with a local family in Mas, one of Bali’s most famous mask-carving villages. Meet the mask maker I Komang Mega, and witness his renowned wood-carving firsthand. Begin the painting process next, as you listen to ancestral stories of magic behind the masks and the symbol of expression for each mask. Delight in these intimate exchanges and take your creation home, a cherished souvenir of the day’s experience.

Engaging in this ancient practice allows you to tap into centuries of Balinese Hindu philosophy, where art acts as a physical conduit between the seen world (sekala) and the unseen spiritual world (niskala)
