Followers of our news site and catalogues will be aware of our place on the panel which assists Connell's Bay Sculpture Park trust members in selecting the winner of the bi-annual photographic installation at the sculpture park on Waiheke Island. At 2. 5 x 5 metres the commission represents a rare opportunity for photographers to produce an image on a mural scale. The inaugural winner was Anne Noble with Spool Henge. This year's winner is Gavin Hipkins who is familiar with working on this type of scale having produced similarly-scaled billboard images for Macraes Heritage and Art Park in Otago. The image will be installed in April of next year.
