Treasures of the Native Forests
May 1, 2009 - June 22, 2009Manoa Campus, Hamilton Library Phase 1 Gallery
"Treasures of the Native Forests" is a photo exhibit by Nathan Yuen. This exhibit celebrates the native forests of Hawai’i and the exceptional plants and animals that can still be found in certain far-flung locations.
Photos of authentic Hawaiian leis made exclusively with plant material available to the Polynesians from these remote native forests prior to Western contact are also featured.
Yuen's photography is an outgrowth of his love for hiking to the wild remote places of Hawai’i. Each weekend he can be found hiking, backpacking or kayaking to out-of-the-way locations to photograph Hawai'i’s native plants and animals, many of which are rare or endangered.
His body of work is at the confluence of hiking, conservation, and fine art photography. It is his goal to showcase the unique plants and animals that live at these places and to give us a reason to protect them for future generations.
