History of WoodCrafts in Nepal

Whenever I see the manifestation of all the Hindu gods and Goddess, buddha and deities in the wood crafts, I make up my own assumptions of their creation. I believe that an artist wanted to express his imagination of the divine being into something tangible so that his fellow species could revere the faith instilled in that being. It may sound rather poetic.

But if we trace down the history of the wooden crafts, the oldest evidence goes back Bavarians and Scandinavia who prepared hunting gears, coffin and animals out of wood.

Art

The art and culture of Nepal has been strongly influenced by the religious beliefs of the country. The artwork is decorative, delicate and very beautiful. Nepal art is strongly influenced by the culture of the people and the two really go together and are interwoven. The two most typical forms of art are that of paintings and sculptures. Nepal art and culture has changed little over the centuries though western influences are slowly starting to affect some modern artists.
