Made Wijaya
[Sanur]: Fotokopi, 1980.

An Expatriate’s Diary. Made Wijaya (born in Sydney as Michael White, 1953-2016) was a landscape architect who left Sydney for Bali as a break from architectural studies at University of Sydney and stayed, immersing himself in the Balinese culture, consorting with royalty, and in 1975 was renamed Made Wijaya by a priest in a Hindu temple ceremony. This work was his first in his Fotokopi series of architecture/artists books, being a collection of articles recording his observations of life, culture, and architecture in his new home as he attends innumerable religious ceremonies. A detailed record from an expatriate perspective of culture and religion in Bali in the late 1970s. This is the First Edition published in an edition of only 4 numbered and signed copies, with a lengthy inscription from the author on the publication information page together with a gratified passport portrait photograph of the author.
