The artists participating in the project came from the Middle Sepik River region of Papua New Guinea.
This was their first trip to the United States.
For many of the artists, it was their first trip outside of Papua New Guinea.
The artists ranged in age from 27 to 73 and came from two different cultural groups, the Kwoma and the Iatmul.
(Some of the photos listed below were shot on the artists' final day at the site when some of them wore special clothing and painted faces as part of the celebration.)

During the summer of 1994, 10 master carvers from Papua New Guinea worked in residence to create a permanent outdoor sculpture garden of New Guinea Art at Stanford University.
Jim Mason, Project Director and graduate student in anthropology, is responsible for bringing the artists from the Middle Sepik River Region of Papua New Guinea to Stanford.
The project is not an attempt to recreate a traditional New Guinea environment but, according to Mason, "an opportunity to experiment with and reinterpret New Guinea aesthetic perspectives within the new context of a Western public art space."
