Book of disputes
Artists were given the opportunity to select and repurpose a decommissioned library book. The books originated from the campus Library at Ara Institute of Canterbury. I was drawn to the "Employment reports of New Zealand 1998", a record of disputes between Employees and Employers. The common theme throughout the book was the different perspectives seen by the people involved in each legal case. I converted the book into a two-chamber pinhole camera, with each chamber facing a different direction. I used the book-camera to photograph places or objects of public debate.
