From tracking polar bears, brown bears and wolves on foot in the high Arctic, to dogsled expeditions in Swedish Lapland to scuba-diving expeditions from the Galapagos
Olly Williams brings Natural High an unrivalled Arctic and Ocean offer born of over 25 years of Wilderness expeditions to witness endangered species in their intensely remote environments
Each wilderness trip we offer has been ‘ground-truthed’ by Olly. Over the years he has invested heavily in the most essential ingredient of a successful expedition - expert local knowledge. To this end he has personally sought out the services of elite trackers, wilderness guides, legendary conservationists and award-winning wildlife cameramen who have in turn become close personal friends and trusted expedition partners.
Today it is the services of these uniquely qualified individuals that we offer to you.
It's only recently that I've done anything really intrepid. When I do go I go with serious teams such as Olly Williams provides ”
In bringing this extraordinary basket of expert-led experiences to Natural High, Olly perfectly complements our existing expertise, bringing an Arctic "yin" to our African "yang"”
"Olly and Suzi, a pair of artists who collaborate to make animal pictures.
One is left-handed, the other right-handed, and they draw marks simultaneously on the same page, creating images that are half-found objects, sometimes comic, often beautiful and always with the innate vibration of the wild.
They work up-close in the bush, the tundra, underwater, as close as they can get to their subject; and they specialise in predators: lions, sharks, bears, wild dogs, crocodiles, snakes. But there is an added element of danger, of commitment, daring bullishness, circus and adventure. The work has elements of performance and environmental advocacy. Olly and Suzi’s paintings are also wild and live outside the urbane, fashionable and expensive contemporary art market. As our own Waldemar Januszczak explained, this was not least because animals and nature are not where the art world looks for its art. It is a civic and urban calling, and those who want kitsch animal paintings of thunderous elephants and suicidal partridges aren’t going to get the expressions of zoomorphism in Olly and Suzi’s work."
