Zones of Immanence
These works each depict a zone of immanence, a mysterious or ambiguous space located in the natural world. The spaces invite mystery in a first encounter; contemplation and reflection.
Viewers are invited to explore a sense of the extraordinariness of being immersed in the flow of life, on a journey through space and time, to reveal interior feelings and imaginative associations that form a visceral, psychologically-compelling experience.
These works have been created from images captured in unique ecosystems in Aotearoa. These include an alpine cushion bog on Mount Ruapehu, formed in land planed and hollowed out by glacier ice in the last glaciation thousands of years ago. In this alpine wetland almost imperceptible currents write slow gestures through rushes, liverworts, sedges, mosses, sphagnum and algae.
Also featured are images from an engineered waterway in the Tongariro Power Scheme, a fast-flowing current of fresh water in which grasses and other aquatic plants have made a home.
