Shona Dey: Longshore Drift, 2022 (from Experiments in the Transient)

Cassey Locke: Mantle, 2022

Having recently completed their Master of Creative Practice at Unitec, Shona Dey and Cassey Locke display work from their individual research projects. Both artists explore physicality and transformation in their work.

Dey’s images of the Māhia Peninsula involve collaboration with place in order to visualise the geologic processes that shape this landscape.

Locke’s work investigates a growing ‘death positive’ movement which proposes that death awareness can contribute to improved wellbeing and how the photographic image might play a part in connecting its viewers to mortality.
