Wayan Trisna

Artisan Organization: Wayan Trisna

Country: Bali and Java

"My name is Ni Wayan Trisna Sri Rahayu. I was born in Celuk Village, Sukawati. The village is famous in foreign countries for its silver crafts. Since childhood, I have been familiar with silver crafts. But I only studied it when I was in high school because I started helping my parents in running their silver business at that time. I feel that I am responsible for carrying on this ancestral heritage so that it doesn't become extinct.

"My life has changed since the birth of my first child in 2012. It forced me to work harder to provide the best for my child. I have had many difficult times in my life. The hardest thing was when a pandemic hit the world. As an island with tourism as the main industry, Bali suffered the worst impact.

"Of all the products that I have produced, the most popular product is the 7 chakra design, because this product has a special meaning in each form. I developed this product with my husband.

"I found it difficult to market my products when the pandemic hit. By joining Novica, I wish to market my products and be liked by customers." "
