| 520 | |a The art of wood carving in Malaysia has been inherited from the old generation of carvers since 16th century. Wood Carving is part of Malay socio-cultural elements which is protected and recognized as one of national important craft that has heritage significance. This wood work should be given greater emphasis by being promoted as one of sources for economic growth .Unfortunately, there are some changes of traditions in the making of Malay wood carving by the young generation in Malaysia. These include the transformation of motif from traditional to contemporary motif. There are lack of data and literatures on the preservation of the wood carving leading to some difficulties in collecting information about this wood work. Therefore, this study aims to recommend a guideline for the preservation method of traditional Malay wood carving of north eastern state of Malay Peninsular Malaysia in sustaining its cultural heritage value. The first objective of this study is to examine the characteristics and properties of wood carving that reflect the craftsmanship of Traditional Malay wood carving which signify it as cultural heritage. The second objective of this study is to determine the method of preserving wood carving as cultural heritage and the third objective of this study is to recommend guidelines of preserving wood carving as one of cultural heritage. Series of semi-structured interviews with expert wood carvers, wood carving collectors and few authorities involved in this area were conducted to obtain the primary data. Norhaiza Nordin and Wan Mustafa, who are master wood carvers and also collectors of wood carving artworks were interviewed to obtain their expert opinions. The researcher also interviewed Puan Rosnawati Othman, a custodian of Akademik Nik Rashidin (ANR) which have vast collection of wood artefacts and preserved them for years. All interviewees are from north eastern states of Peninsular Malaysia. The interviews focused on characteristics of Malay traditional wood carving and also its preservation techniques. The researcher conducted a visual analysis in the selected of 30 wood carving samples to document the characteristics of traditional wood carving. The study found that heritage value on carving components can be determined thorough its visual and physical characteristics. These characteristics determine the distinctiveness of the carved components that has become the key determinants to their heritage attributes resulting to significant pieces of work. The study suggests that the art of wood carving should be preserved in terms of its tangible characteristics and also intangible characteristics. The research describes the properties and characteristics of Traditional Malay wood carving based on visual values and craftsmanship and continuity of the craft requires the safeguarding efforts among the young generation of woodcarvers and related parties. Future research is necessary to explore on detail the techniques of wood carving and its process of production to ensure the sustainability of this art as a local heritage product. | ||
