Story Behind the art:
My name is Sunarto, and I was born in Ujung Pandang in 1983. Ujung Pandang is one of the largest and fastest-growing cities in Eastern Indonesia, specifically located on the island of Sulawesi. My grandparents were traditional goldsmiths, but my parents chose not to continue their work. Instead, I decided to carry on the legacy of my grandparents and pursue their craft. I am the youngest of five siblings, with two brothers and two sisters. I spent my childhood in Ujung Pandang until 1988 when my family and I relocated to Bali. I really like art even though I have never pursued formal art education - I am self-taught.
I embarked on my journey as a jewelry designer, studying and working independently. There were occasions where I felt underestimated due to my age and limited experience. While I encountered some setbacks, there were many successful projects I completed. Notably, my collaborations with customers from abroad have been particularly rewarding. I thrive on challenges and take immense pride in delivering excellent results that garner praise from my clients. Such recognition is truly invaluable.
As an open-minded and easygoing person, I am always open to changing times, especially in today's digital era, which provides us with convenient avenues to market artisanal products. With Novica, I hope to create even better designs and gain international recognition.
The handmade touch of artisan skill creates variations in color, size and design. If buying two of the same item, slight differences should be expected. Note: Color discrepancies may occur between this product and your computer screen.
