Have you seen it on the Internet? Yep.
What is it making a noise inside? This one.
They were carved into the mask.
hmm..
So, is it..
..a shaman mask?
Now it isn't.
Currently it's like
..a third eye
the who sees well..
... not with eyes, but with intuition.
I have always wanted to make it so that the eyes are moving.
While nobody has the same mask.
How long have you been making it?
For a very long time
First I had to prepare the wood to dry up.
Then I carved this one..
Later the eyes..
Then the ornament was made.
So
three month or half year?
No, I guess for about a year.
Because I had little time.
Normally I can make for..
one month.
What's your name?
I'm Andrey Vladimirovich Kile.
Andrey Vladimirovich, tell me please
What are you doing now? Now I'm making a birch bark container. Precisely I'm making an ornament for the box, embossed ornament, male embossed ornament.
How long does it take
to make one birch bark container..
or ornament? It depends on time. It can probably take five hours.
Just the ornament.
Could you count how many
birch bark containers
you have made
in total? I don't know. A lot.
Tell me please
What encouraged you
carve wood?
Why did you decide
to practice
this handcrafting?
Since childhood when I was at school this kind of art attracted me.
And then I became a self-taught person.
I achieved everything by myself. Now I wish
I had a good instructor who could teach me.
