Ilam Campus Gallery Student Series #5: Land | Memory | Fragility

Sarah Rowlands / Wendy Clarke / John Osborne

An invitation to a collaborative exhibition showcasing the works of three postgraduate students and their individual responses to the environment where it intersects with human experience.

Each presents distinct environmental interpretations through diverse approaches to photography. The exhibition is a creative experiment to merge their unique, yet complementary perspectives of the whenua, showcasing how various aspects of the environment can be captured and conveyed through artistic practice, enhancing meaning and awareness.

The artists’ lived experience of the landscape is presented to allow viewers to reflect on the past, present (and future).

The intention is to encourage questions about the journey and interaction with the natural and constructed world, reflecting on land, memory, and fragility.

Exhibition opens 5pm, Wednesday 11 September and runs until Friday 20 September. 

Artist talk, 12pm Wednesday 18 September in the gallery.
