Di Halstead, Alice Ng, Lieve Van den Bosch, Karen Williamson and Barbara Cope are five female photographers connected through gender, voice and a shared exhibition history since 2013. They have been instrumental in producing and curating several group shows for Auckland Festival of Photography, notably with their previous group, Matakana Images.
The dynamic has evolved and the five now exhibit collectively as Locus. Their continued focus is to explore themes of time, place, memory and identity and they have each created a body of images for 'Torn' which integrate core themes in their personal practice with the Festival theme.
