Captured by biologist turned photographer, Chien Lee is an avid naturalist with an incurable fascination with Borneo’s rainforest. His photographs have been widely used by international publishers, including National Geographic, Smithsonian, and the BBC.
You will be impressed with the stunning images of the discovery and rediscovery of new and lost species with clever adaptations for survival and interesting stories behind each photo.
These pieces are intended to inspire an appreciation of nature and to encourage the viewer to venture into the forest themselves; thereby seeking their own deeper understanding of the wonder of life.
To make this exhibition as accessible as possible to the public… entry is free for all! Yay!
The exhibition is now open till 30 June 2021, and is located at the Borneo's Tree of Life Exhibition on Level 3 of GMBB Kuala Lumpur.
