Devonport: Architecture of Land & Sea Art Exhibition

The Team from Depot Artspace

For many of us, these last few months have had us hanging out in our neighbourhoods, often discovering details we had never noticed before...even after years of habitation.

In Devonport: Architecture of Land and Sea, artist Martin Law Painter of Paradise has taken attentiveness to a whole new level. His paintings are an exquisite, almost microscopically, observed tribute to Devonport, its history, environment and architecture. Each element is of singular note, but forms a whole, a narrative of a community, its development through time in a landscape – whenua overlooked by its two Maunga Takarunga and Maungauika.

On display from September 5th - October 14 in the Main Gallery, artist Martin Law will also be on-hand at Depot Artspace every Sunday over the duration of the exhibition.

Hope to see you there and do share your special stories & memories of any of the location in the works with us!

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
