The carving, metalwork, plaiting and basketry, beadwork and weaving of the Borneo people of Sarawak reflect their environment, beliefs, and their simple way of life. Although market demands and the availability of materials are bringing about many changes, the skill and artistry of the indigenous people of Sarawak remain. ABOUT THE AUTHOR...Heidi Munan has lived in Kuching and written about Borneo culture for over 30 years.
