Possibly it is a rendering of the 'Barong and Keris' dance as performed by Balinese dancers.

Thank you, Rick. This is it. I looked up 'Barong and Keris dance' online and it is strikingly similar depiction. I'll try to post photo of the statue, but am almost certain this is what it depicts, the position of the Keris, the pose, facial expression, etc. Thanks again!
