Artist Mary-Clare
Buckle, inspired by the story of Tokelau, has produced
work to capture the romance and beauty of these coral
atolls, which are so remote that it takes 42 hours to get
there on the monthly boat from Samoa and are only visited
by 20 tourists a year.
Yet the islanders are trying to do something about their
lack of contact with the outside world. They
have set up the Tokelau Internet Project - in
return for publicising the islands and the Project,
website owners can register .tk domain names for
free.
