About

This book is a year-long collaboration between Bali-based
Dutch artist Milou Neelen and Sydney-based photographer Anna Pihan.
Oceans apart they corresponded in images rather than words, creating a glowing visual story about endless leisure, bound to warm you up like a breezy sunset without a cloud in the sky.

MILOU NEELEN 

Milou Neelen waved Amsterdam goodbye to follow her heart to Bali, Indonesia. Here, the mellow island life, tropical climate, and lush greenery spark her colorful abstract paintings and illustrations. In love with exploring new worlds and hopping hotels along the way, she founded Hôtel Magique; a brand that captures the fleeting moments of travel into timeless art and magique souvenirs.
