Discovered land

This work was part of my Full Circle exhibition at Little River Gallery and has been made from reclaimed Rimu and Kauri. ‘Discovered land’ sits along side ‘Undiscovered land’ and acts to contrast the real impact of progress.

In New Zealand, we’re fortunate to have a rich landscape, that is the envy of many. These artworks draw on our diverse landscape and looks at the burden that society has and continues to have on this beautiful part of the world. Our actions today, have far reaching consequences tomorrow! I sought to reflect these contexts in artworks that convey the present and my hopes for positive change in the future.
