Photo Hunt: Art

June 2, 2007 · Posted in Photo Hunt 

February this year, I went to Batam with my colleages, for a day trip. It was organized by our company.

One of the place we visited is the art center in Sekupang. You can see arts and crafts from all over Indonesia.

I took the picture of this statues of deity in the art center. It is very common to see statues of deities in the local temples.

I do not understand the story of this deity, but it is a nice handcrafts.
