Artist Megan Jenkinson presents her latest body of work, 'Secateur / Sequitur', at Two Rooms in Auckland. The exhibition features intricate photocollages that blend botanical elements with man-made materials like wire, drawing inspiration from classical philosophy and the Japanese art of ikebana. Jenkinson’s meticulously structured compositions explore the tension between the natural world and human systems of order.
This exhibition highlights the continued evolution of a significant figure in New Zealand’s photographic history. As an Associate Professor at the Elam School of Fine Arts with a career spanning over three decades, Jenkinson’s return to the gallery circuit reaffirms her influence on contemporary photography and her ability to merge academic rigor with evocative visual storytelling.
