Mark L. Watts
As a Hero of Nippon
2nd June - 13th June, 2009
Mark’s unique form of photographic self portraiture is as absorbing as it is absurd; we are taken to the heart of Japanese idolatry, pop characters in anime style, forming narratives in all the magic and colour of this addictive cult genre. But all is not as it appears… Mark has seamlessly employed his own visage to skew the imagery.

Stephanie Louise O'Connor
Audition
16th June - 27th June 2009
Audition conjures up dark worlds whose inhabitants act out their parody in makeshift theatre. If her world is a stage, then O’Connor’s actors are burlesque.
Steph O’Connor is an Auckland based digital and photographic artist whose saturated imagery and gift for transforming her subjects make her pieces a pleasure to engage with. Enriched with drama and tension her work is delivered with elegance while still capturing a child-like curiosity.
Steph’s techniques are progressive in embracing digital enhancement. She is a photographic painter whose subject matter, though strangely familiar, is full of enigmatic imaginings. |
