Extended description	A self-taught artist who learned by watching Ngendon at work. He was a member of the Pita Maha group and showed his work to Bonnet and Spies for criticism. There are twenty-seven paintings by him in the Bateson-Mead Commission. (H. Geertz 1994: 104) Painted in the Kamasan style. He developed his style of painting independent from the influential Batuan artists of Ngendon and Mura. he was also a renowned teacher of art in Batuan, and the Batuan style today still bears the influence of Jata's works and teachings. He continued to paint well after the war, however in May 1994, he expressed a wish to give up his art due to his age. (Hohn 1997: 53-58)
