A New Collaboration in Wildlife Conservation
In an exciting move to promote wildlife conservation, HUNTING WORLD, founded by the adventurous Robert M. Lee, is launching a collaboration with renowned illustrator SHOGO SEKINE as part of its Borneo Charity Project. This partnership reflects the brand's commitment to coexistence with nature and aims to raise funds for biodiversity conservation efforts in Borneo.
Since its inception in 2008, the Borneo Charity Project has focused on wildlife conservation in this ecologically rich area. A portion of the sales from charity goods is directed to the recognized NPO, Borneo Conservation Trust Japan, which actively supports local biodiversity initiatives.
Meet SHOGO SEKINE
SHOGO SEKINE, who grew up in New York and was born in Tokyo in 1983, is recognized for his vibrant illustrations that combine typography, shapes, and floral elements. His deep appreciation for animals, inspired by his own experiences with rescue dogs, resonated with the ethos of the Borneo Charity Project. As he embarks on this collaboration, he expresses his gratitude and aligns with HUNTING WORLD's ongoing dedication to animal welfare in Borneo.
"It was a natural flow for me to resonate with the Borneo Charity Project since I love animals and have a dog of my own. They can't speak for themselves, and that’s why it’s essential for us humans to care for them and ensure they live in a favorable environment, " SEKINE remarks. His artistic interpretation aims to portray a bright, hopeful future for Borneo, echoing the beauty and vitality of its diverse ecosystems.
