A World Within
Borneo 2011
In Autumn of 2011 my search for inspiration took me to the other side of the world, deep into the heart of Borneo’s rainforests to hidden places, where very few have ventured before.I learned about life, I’ve learned about the special people that are there… they don’t have money, but they’re trying to retain the rainforest in as best way they can and now I understand why this has to be. This collection is inspired by the magical and almost spiritual journey through the forests.
These paintings are a tribute to the peoples of Borneo and their struggle to preserve their spectacular environment from destruction. I just hope that I have done the rainforest and the people justice.
