Wayang kulit is probably the most famous and imaginative form of indonesian art. Finely carved and painted thin leather puppets move behind a white linnen screen, such that the audience on the other side of the screen sees the shadows only.
Kulit means leather. Thick and specifically treated water buffalo leather is manually cut out, engraved, ciseled with amazing detail and finally hand-painted. Movable limbs are joined with leather bolts and even the handles are made from the long horns of the same water buffaloes.
