Outlook: subject to change

Outlook: subject to change

Deborah Crowe

478 Karangahape Rd

An after dark projection at 478 Karangahape Rd (cnr Edinburgh St). Viewed from outside, this exhibition occupies the interior space of a corner site typically used as a business meeting place by day.

Part of Artweek Auckland 2019

Crowe’s ‘Outlook’ project, originated in 2016 and ongoing, is driven by a preoccupation of documenting architecture and urban spaces. These photographic images observe change in the built environment; some record minutiae from local surroundings while others are digitally collaged to construct new imaginary spaces - hypothetical woven city sites. All shot whilst walking in Auckland city, particularly around Karangahape Road and surrounding areas, 'Outlook: subject to change’ registers Crowe’s observations on urbanism along with her hopes and fears for our future environments.
