Artisan Info: "My name is Ketut Sudana Antara and I was born on May 21, 1954 in Bali. I was born and grew up in the middle of an artistic family, where I learned most about art works. In 1993, together with my wife, I started to produce various kinds of ironwork. It was hard for me to introduce iron art works, because people often choose wooden works for their natural appearance instead of ironwork. I was near to giving up my work, but fortunately I have the best woman on my side - she is a wife and a friend in happiness and sadness. She helps me through the hard times. She is everything to me. "Friends and magazines give me inspiration in creating new designs. It is important to prevail in the market, since recently there are many artists producing ironwork. "High thanks to what Novica is doing in promoting artists' art works into the whole world - especially for the Balinese artist."
