'Tokelau - Lagoon' - light on

This shows it backlit, as it appears with the integral light switched on


Tokelau - Lagoon - size 50 x 35cm - price £470

This is one of a series of pieces inspired by the South Sea islands of Tokelau.   I love the way that the lighted piece gives an impression of looking up into the sun from an underwater viewpoint - snorkelling in a tropical lagoon.   When the light is turned off, you see a semi-abstract view of the rich colours of tropical islands.

Inspired by the story of Tokelau, I have produced a series of work to capture the romance and beauty of these coral atolls.   Click here to look at the special website which I have set up about the Tokelau Internet Project and the work which I have produced inspired by the islands.
