Timothy Cushan trained as a commercial photographer and has recently returned from India where he documented the the disappearing “Camel Tribes” of Rajasthan. His fascination with elephants began when he visited a rescue and rehabilitation reserve in Thailand. The 'Elephant Skin' series is born out of "a passionate connection with animals and their inherent capacity to convey a deeper truth...I believe that an image can be imbued with the power, magic, humour and beauty to teach and inspire beyond language, age, time and culture and remind us of the truth of ourselves and the world we share." He has exhibited in his native Australia and New York and California.
