Collaborative artwork made with local residents
Using an original method of layering Japanese wallpaper and working with the resulting material, the artist created nine works depicting the hardships experienced by the Padian women of Brunei. As sellers of fresh produce and everyday items at the floating markets, the women are symbolic of strength and of the disappearing traditions and culture of Brunei.
