9th arm:Is there a way out? A glance at the history of humankind suggests a solution, painful but feasible. But it requires the destruction of the current order. Great natural disasters and wars have destroyed or wiped out entire civilizations or forced them to migrate. In Europe, the consequences of the Second World War uprooted most people, stripping them of everything that was important to their social status. The devastating tsunami of 2004, which cost the lives of almost 250,000 people in Asia, succeeded in breaking up political fronts and entrenched power structures. Greed for beauty and fame, political power and the greed for raw materials were all washed away with the floods. Like a giant river ending in a waterfall that swallows up all of the abominations spawned by greed, then pulverizing them through the kinetic energy of the fall. Social differences are temporarily erased and a new beginning can come. Has anyone learned anything from this cycle? I doubt it...

Another artwork from a driftwood trove. This piece of teakwood is likely from the fishing boat rib and gave the perfect home for this mink whale. They are hunted from a few countries, likely Japan. It is believed that there are some 500.000 mink whales living in all the oceans. |

Gosh, where is my camera? Was not expecting to see such a big whale right in front of our boat. Blue whale and landscape from camphor wood and a small corner of Pulai wood. The blue whale is assembled from 2 pieces and the fluke is enlarged. Give whales a decent living space. The real green is more bluish. |

The polar bear is desperately looking for some pray, there isn't very much in these days. May be he will not find enough for his winter sleep time. Combination from 2 kinds of wood, Teak from a fishing boat, the original paint and the bear from white poplar. There might be glued parts. |
