Overview

The Afterglow of Industry collects photographs and texts made during a 10-year project in which the artist repeatedly traveled the length of New Zealand, from its urban centers to its most remote landscapes. Through painstakingly produced large-format film photographs and extended texts, the book explores the aftermath of the industrial era and colonial project in New Zealand, reflecting on what our labor and dreams can mean in an age of late-capitalism and climate change.
