Review of At Home by Mark Amery - EyeContact
" A photograph of a sign decorated along its top border by kowhaiwhai is shot to the side of a vacant car park and grass verge looking out to a space between the highway and a suburb. In its composition the image neatly plays with triangular forms that follow the sign's wharenui shape. We see the white back of the sign at an angle but not its front. Like the more straightforward image of the underside of a silver fern here it suggests a personal upturning of iconography to look for its other sides." read more
