Connells Bay Photography Billboard


John and Jo Gow's unique property on Waiheke Island unites art and nature by planting sweeps of native trees and creating special spaces for site-specific commissioned New Zealand sculpture. In recent times however, a large mural-scale billboard has also been a feature of the park and now, annually, submissions are invited by photographers and photo-media artists to create a work which will sit for a year within this awe-inspiring environment. ART+OBJECT are delighted to have been invited to help make up the selection panel along with trustees of the park and James Gow. Submissions must be received by the 31st of August. Enquiries can be directed to info@connellsbay.co.nz.
