Spiritual Healer

The goal of this project was to capture compelling images for a feature about a spiritual healer in Sarawak. Through documentary-style photography, the project highlighted the healer’s tools, practices, and daily life in the village. The imagery aimed to bring his story to life, offering a glimpse into his unique role and traditions within the community.

This project was commissioned by Malaysia.my in 2017 and took place in Kampung Gumbang, a small village near the Sarawak-Kalimantan Indonesia border. The photographs documented the healer’s daily activities and tools, sharing a fascinating cultural narrative with a wider audience.
