Bali Wood carving by Balinese carver, like stone carving, has traditionally featured largely in temple and palace architecture with little free standing 'sculpture' work produced commercially. Immaculately carved demons and mythical beings decorate pillars, door panels, and window shutters with the aim of protecting the buildings from evil intruders. Scenes of legendary figures placed within floral decor are also found and reflect a more pleasant and educational tone. With the arrival of European influences, wood carving started to develop along more innovative and commercial lines. Although there have been noteworthy carvers, artistic integrity has suffered as a result of the commercial boom in the tourism industry. These days whole villages specialize in producing certain styles of work. The village of Mas, for example, is probably best known for its carvings of female figures, characters from Hindu epics, and traditional masks.
