峇裡島的皮影戲 (Shadow Puppet)

峇裡的皮偶是由皮革、塗料及木頭或骨頭製成,皮偶的身體或手臂則以枝條支援,而操縱皮偶的人使用枝條移動皮偶。當米德與貝特森身在峇裡島時,他們僱用了一位名為艾瓦拉 (I Wara) 的當地人為他們製造了幾個皮偶。艾瓦拉是一位皮偶大師,而他的爸爸也是一位專業的皮偶製造家。米德和貝特森對艾瓦拉製造皮偶的過程、使用的工具及工具的使用方法極感興趣,他們將艾瓦拉製造皮偶的過程拍攝成影片。一開始,艾瓦拉用墨水勾勒皮偶的輪廓,然後,在薄皮革上雕刻皮偶的外形,最後上色。您能看出短片內的艾瓦拉在做什麼嗎?您可以試著演出自製的皮偶戲!

Balinese shadow puppets are made out of leather, paint, and wood or bone. Rods are attached to the puppets' body and arms. The puppeteer uses the rods to move the puppet. While they were in Bali, Mead and Bateson hired a local man named I Wara to make several puppets for them. I Wara was an artist and his father had also been a professional puppet maker. Mead and Bateson were interested in how I Wara made the puppets, the tools he used, and how he used those tools. They took some movies of I Wara making the puppets. First he traces the puppet shape with ink, then carves it out of thin leather and finally paints it. Can you tell what I Wara is doing in this short movie? Try putting on your own shadow puppet play!
