Photography
Watershed, Kaharore is a photographic exploration of past and present urban pollution in the Karori Stream and community responses to its degradation. It explores various sites along the stream, as well as featuring imagery of the community water testing group “Friends of Waipāhihi Karori Stream”. The project aims to amplify their message while also investigating the dynamic and often invisible ways urban streams in Aotearoa are affected by pollution.
