(at the time of the video) He's one of the oldest shadow puppet master, and he's the only surviving master that can make paper shadow puppets.

I couldn't find any current information about him.

Often they come from sheep, cow, or donkey leather. Each puppet takes 10 steps to make, and they're all very precise.
