The Orang Asli or Aborigines are known for their arts and cultures. Their life is full of mystic and beliefs towards nature. Although some of them have been influenced by modernity, their arts and heritage remain intact. Among the crafts that they still preserve is carving of masks and sculptures as an activity during their leisure times and used for their ritual ceremonies.
The arts are in line with their belief, imagination and worldview on god and sprits. Their imagination can be seen through their carving which were given various names similar to nature such as land, rainbow, thunder, mind, sea and earth. The crafts of wood carving has received tremendous interests from anthropologists. Of all the eighteen tribes in this country, the Mahmeri and Jahut are the dominant ones especially in the area of wood carving of sculptures and masks.
