​About the painting

 

Referencing climate change, water damage and sustainability, the gold seam that runs across the painting is a tiny section of Juruá River, a 1200 mile long tributary of the Amazon. It was inspired by the abandoned corroded metal frame and NASA imagery of the Amazon basin from space.

 

The tributary is painted in 22ct gold leaf, emphasising the value of these incredible rivers and their inhabitants
 

Since this painting was finished The National Geographic and Rolex Perpetual Planet Initiative have teamed up to support communities along the river to develop a conservation model to build a sustainable and fair future for the river and it’s aquatic animals.
