The Conference of the Birds Collection brings to life the flight of the birds on their spiritual journey to find the mythical Bird of God: The Simurgh. This collection is in homage to Mehera's late mother Laurie Blum, who painted Conference of the Birds which this collection is inspired by.
The Blumera Conference of the Birds Wood Carved Collection is carved by the very best carver in Bali. Though there are 1000s of carvers on the island, there is only one who can achieve the caliber of carving that is the gold standard of Blumera. Mehera and Pak Mangku share a special bond, and it is through this connection that the artistry of this collection is manifested.
Because of Mehera’s unwavering dedication to maintain the integrity of her mother’s lines and brushstrokes, she prints a copy of the painting, selecting and affixing the flowers and birds to the wood, and has Blumera’s magical Mangku (Balinese High Priest) carve directly into her mother’s lines creating the illustrious collection.
