How can still
life painting explore the traditional notions of good and evil in the
relationship between indigenous and exotic species?
The investigation
will:
• Generate a
series of paintings and writing that reveals and probes examples of both
mutualistic andvparasitic relationships between exotic and native species in
the Auckland region
• Raise awareness
regarding bio control. In particular, that public as well as council interest
and
intervention is
required to control invasive species and protect threatened indigenous species
• Provide an
account of the relationship between culture and nature i.e. how the creation of
a Neo-
European
environments as well as ongoing intervention has resulted in the current
Auckland region character
• Demonstrate
that a significant part of the foundation for much of scientific endeavour
today has itsvroots in the empirical observation and representation of the
natural world characterised by 15th,
16thand 17th century European
still life art
