Created with the people of Tairāwhiti, Salt was influenced by the collective experience of our time, COVID-19. The works consider the projection of the 'self', with the participants cognisant of this exploration into photographic ontology. Made together, the imagery seeks to provoke discourse on humanity's predilection to preconceive and stereotype.

Eight Diptych Portraits.
