The Heart of Borneo

_DSC7195

In late 2014 I travelled to Sarawak, deep into the heart of Borneo to create a series of

portraits of people effected by industrial logging.

These villages only settled five years ago. Before then they lived a nomadic life in the

jungle. Today they still rely heavily upon the jungle for their food and livelihood.

These are the faces of those directly effected by modern logging practices. They are

loosing their futures so the western world can have flooring.
