Abstract

A group exhibition by over fifty artists, Transforming Topographies was envisaged as a space of emergence, debate and negotiation. A space continuously dismantled, repositioned and energised by groups and individuals in conversation within a fluid and open state of oscillation. As a group of thinkers, collaborators, makers and designers the intention was to rethink the role of 'the social' and 'the public' as real spaces of continuous exchange and encounter that engendered our imagination and community values. Many of the 34 projects dealt with how it is that we relate to place, to 'being here in New Zealand' – to the society we live in and to political, social, ethical and psychological contexts.
