Two digital artefacts of this art project are being auctioned to raise funds for the Bali Children's Project https://balichildrensproject.org/

The first is a gif of a key part of the film of the painting and poem. The second is the only high definition of the final art work, with the pieces arranged in a broken way to reflect the theme of the poem and the film. 

The poem is at https://jembendell.com/2021/04/06/an-ode-to-mauna-loa/
