P-LAB: Rosie Whinray Exhibition Artist Talk

A black and white photo of Rosie Whinray. She walks carefully, one foot at a time along the rocks of a stoney beach. There is a hill cascading down into the sea on the right, off into the distance. The photo is likely taken along the south coast in Wellington, where Rosie collected much of the material for her Pyramid Club exhibition. It is a bright day with few, small clouds.

Artist Rosie Whinray will host an interactive talk related to her Pyramid Club exhibition about ways of looking, personal relationship to place, the practice of finding, and how it relates to other forms of pattern recognition and storytelling.
