Suspended in place and time we see the inner and outer worlds of those pictured and, for a moment, envisage ourselves there.Įdith Amituanai was born in 1980 in Auckland, New Zealand. Double Take invites us to reconsider these works for the critical insights they reveal of the artist’s use of and belief in the photographic medium. Imaging people and domestic spaces in her immediate neighbourhood of Ranui in West Auckland and extending to Samoa, the USA and beyond, she provides a lens on what she describes as a ‘third-wave migration’ driven by diverse economic and social forces that propel the movement of Pacific Island communities from their homelands. Presenting over 60 photographs, it provides insights into the various bodies of work she has produced since 2003 which draw attention to the experiences of Pacific people as well as other diasporic communities both within New Zealand and further afield. Edith Amituanai: Double Take is the first exhibition to survey artist Edith Amituanai’s practice in its entirety.
