Abstract or Summary

Zeus Gallery of Tauranga presents this exhibition in a different setting from its original in Palmerston North. Travelling across Waikato, Hauraki, Coromandel and Bay of Plenty, the scenes and imagery unfold in similar ways as they do for me in Manawatu. There’s more of the idyllic and affluent, but the same kind of histories and adaptations appear. Pioneer Highway comprises a suite of paintings that mingle historical, pastoral, and imaginary situations; it is a tender and playful reflection on a set of unglamorous yet peculiar locations and the identities that link to them.
