Nagomi art is the name of a creative trend with a relaxing character, which is currently very popular in Asia in particular. It has its origin in Japan. The focus is not the finished work or the applied technique, but the creative process and its calming, relaxing effect on the artist. (definition from Faber-Castell.eu)

“We have barely scratched the surface of Timor-Leste’s biodiversity. New discoveries can have profound impacts on conservation and policy-making.”
In August 2022, we led an expedition to Timor-Leste in collaboration with Conservation International and the government of Timor-Leste. The Museum’s herpetologist, Dr CHAN Kin Onn, discovered a new species of bent-toed gecko which was named Cyrtodactylus santana, in reference to the Nino Konis Santana National Park, in which the gecko was discovered.
