26 May - 19 June 2010
An exhibition of new mezzotint prints by Chris Adams.
This exhibition showcases a series of works based on Chris's frequent trips to the Chatham Islands as both a geologist and an artist. These beautifully atmospheric etchings convey his admiration for the dramatic land and seascapes of these remote islands. With this series Chris captures the sense of mystery as well as tranquility found in the moorlands and native bush of the Chatham Islands - very much "a land apart" from mainland New Zealand.
