Devonport: Architecture of Land & Sea Art Exhibition
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: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?
The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟
While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.
We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
