Decolonising the Documentary Lens
Advertisement
Opening this November, Ūkaipō: Decolonising the Documentary Lens brings together photography, moving image and sound in an exploration of whenua, identity, representation and the connections between people and place.
Developed through collaboration and wānanga involving Tom Roa, photographic artist Rodrigo Hill and mana whenua, the exhibition explores documentary practice through approaches grounded in Indigenous authority, mātauranga Māori and relationships with place.
Ūkaipō invites us to look again: at the photographer's position, at what sits within and beyond the frame, and at whose perspectives shape the stories we tell about place.
📍 Te Whare Taonga o Te Awamutu Museum
📅 Opening to the public 27 November 2026
🗓 Showing until May 2027
