Photosynthesisers: Women and the lens includes

photographs and videos produced since the 1960s

by women artists living in Aotearoa and Australia.

As the title suggests, the exhibition is centred on the

specific, transformative relationship between women

and lens-based media, identifying an enduring,

intergenerational regional history via the photographs

and videos of artists from Aotearoa, Australia, and

Moana Oceania. This major exhibition comprises

the work of over 40 artists, including: Edith Amituanai,

Minerva Betts, Fiona Clark, Margaret Dawson,

Destiny Deacon, Bonita Ely, Lisa Reihana,

Tracey Moffatt, Salote Tawale, and Marie Shannon.
