Sina
Rang Lemulun has been continuously striving to keep the local
handicraft industry alive for the past two decades through her
production of traditional Sarawakian handicrafts.
Her
works of art comprise woven basketries, beadworks and many others.
Keeping this tradition alive was no easy task as dwindling number of
local artisans and today’s youths showing little interest in taking up a
trade like this.
As
an artist, Sina Rang Lemulun is very proud of her works because it’s
her way to keep the traditional crafts alive and show the Kelabits do
have some fine handicrafts that should be shared for posterity.
