Project: Finding the SeedsA previous recipient of 2008 Seed Grants, Noah continues his work with the forest communities in Baram and Limbang, Sarawak documenting local ecological knowledge. A photographer and writer, Noah creates a landscape of images through his lens, unearthing stories hidden from the urban world.
Forest Voices encompasses not only capturing knowledge through photography but also through holding workshops, such as seed and tree sharing workshops in order to utilize forest knowledge into wider practices. These workshops intend to create a platform where forest experts can share and exchange ideas on collection, planting and managing wild trees in their lands, farm plots or in hunting and gathering forests.
The project also involves the completion of a long-term book project on forest knowledge and management as well as two children’s books on forest culture.
