In a career that spanned over 40 years, Don Binney's commitment to ornithology, environmental issues and spiritual connection with the land informed his art practice. He was a founding patron of the Hauturu Trust which protects Te Hauturu-o-Toi, Little Barrier Island. Bunkhouse Garden IV is a rare view unavailable to most due to restricted public access to the island.
