Harry Culy, Mirror City

13 August - 5 September 2020

Overview

Mirror City is a photo series of Wellington, NZ — the artist’s home town. After several years spent living overseas, Culy realised his connection to the city had shifted. While much of its landmarks were the same, parts felt unstuck, uncanny, even alien. Shot using a 4x5” field camera Mirror City unfolds with this sentiment in mind — rethinking our changing relationship to home and its futures.

Culy has exhibited widely across New Zealand and Australia. Recent exhibitions include: News from the Sun, City Gallery, Wellington, 2020; Nobody believe you (bad luck), Jhana Millers, Wellington, 2019; Altered Visions, China Heights, Sydney, 2019.
