At the very Eastern edge of the Indonesian Archipelago, the tropical Islands of Raja Ampat fade into impossible beauty and total remoteness.

From above, this untouched wilderness paints a perfect picture.  The landscape dominated by dramatic jungle-clad peaks that shelter thriving coral reefs, turbid bays, hidden lagoons and sun-kissed shores.  

A magical world, rich in colour and abundant with life.

ATLAS is artwork #003 from ISLANDS.

A photographic series portraying the harmonious interplay between land and sea - from an aerial perspective.  

A visual journey of organic shapes, abstract formations and contrasting hues from Earth’s most far-flung and beautiful places.

Indonesia is an expansive tropical archipelago graced with magnificent natural landscapes, a rich history and affectionate people. Creativity is abundant and such an integral part of its culture.

The warmth and sense of belonging held such an irresistible allure that I moved here in 2017 to pursue a life more aligned with my purpose and passions.

Located at the heart of Indonesia, in the Sape Strait between the Islands of Flores and Sumbawa, exists a fairytale land of volcanic origin.

Remnants of a Jurassic world forged 130 million years ago and, to this day, ruled by dragons, the Islands of Komodo offer exceptional natural beauty and are unquestionably one of the most dramatic landscapes throughout our beautiful world.

A fleeting moment of serenity and solitude. A dreamworld beyond imagination - ‘Neverland'

NEVERLAND

Exploring the beautiful coastlines and hidden corners of Raja Ampat in pursuit of the unknown and the unseen.  

From ground level, it would be easy to miss these unique limestone formations in a secluded bay of Indonesia’s Far East.  Three solitary islands akin to emeralds amidst the vivid blue of the Pacific Ocean.

BALI

From its emerald green interior and Jurrasic rock formations, to palm-fringed shores and translucent waters, the Islands of Raja Ampat are truly a land of striking contrast and unparalleled natural beauty.  

This pristine archipelago is located in the West Papua Province of Indonesia’s exotic Far East.  Straddling the equator, its unique geographical position between both the Pacific and Indian Oceans is renowned for its biologically complex ecosystem, nutrient-rich waters and unmatched marine biodiversity.      

Since its discovery in 1526 by Portuguese Navigator Jorge de Menezes, this remote wilderness remains, to this day, virtually untouched by human intervention and advancements of our modern society.  Approximately 95% of the 1500 islands are uninhabited and widely distributed across an enormous 46,000 square kilometres.  With very limited accessibility and abundance of vast ocean voids, the sense of isolation and solitude is profound.  A world so tranquil - the last quiet place on earth.

ATMOSPHERE

Untouched and unchanged for centuries, the idyllic Islands of Raja Ampat are far removed from the fast pace and advances of todays civilisation. 

As humans continue to cross oceans in their thirst for discovery and the pursuit of the unknown, continuity and the preservation of fragile environments for future generations is a delicate balance, entrusted to the native communities who inhabit them.
