ANN SHELTON a ride in the darkness
05 Mar 2010  - 27 Mar 2010

ANN SHELTON a ride in the darkness
The photographs in this ongoing series take the notion of wastelands as a jumping off point to discuss European land occupation in early Aotearoa, New Zealand. Settlers and in other instances soldiers returning from The First World War were offered parcels of hinter-land for purchase, some of these were extremely isolated, unproductive and in some cases downright deadly. They held in their promise for a future the inherent possibility of failure. “a ride in the darkness” looks at the social context of this particular use of land and takes this contested ground as a jumping of point for a discussion of these narratives in context. Towns like Arawhata, Mangapurua and Martins Bay are extreme examples of this attempt to tame lands that are isolated and extremely difficult to access.
