an OWL

An Owl is....

​​An owl is wisdom, 
An owl is regal
An owl is intelligence
An owl is a guide, an inspiration.
An owl teaches us to keep our eyes wide open to explore the magic of life

The sculpted owl placed on the gable of the gallery is a reminder that a photographer who wishes to create images,  
​must always be aware. 

To be aware of our environment, to notice the  human beings around us, to be open to other Cultures, to acknowledge all sentient beings is necessary if we wish to live in peace. 

​The Making of the Totem

We brought a 37 cm by 60 cm teak plank to Mister Heri,
He gave us back an incredible sculpture
Our eyes opened wide when we first saw his masterpiece.
