Acclaimed war photographer Bruce Connew has turned his lens on to our country's colonial memorials to document "a vocabulary of colonisation".
His exhibition A Vocabulary at Te Uru Gallery in Titirangi, Auckland features 79 images of memorials and gravestones dating from 1863 through to 2015, and runs until February 14th.
The exhibition also acts as a preview for a book of the same name due out in February featuring many more photographs.
