Jago Neal: Pause

On show 6 June to 22 June

In his latest collection, Jago Neal invites us into a world where time slows and observation takes precedence. Using alternative processes and unconventional approaches, Jago pushes the boundaries of traditional photography to create unexpected and captivating results. For him, photography, especially shooting film, is more than just capturing images—it's a deliberate pause from the everyday pace of life. It is a moment to step back, be present, and observe the natural environment.

This exhibition is presented as part of Auckland Festival of Photography.
