Artist Statement

With prized plumage and a stabbing beak the Kōtuku holds mythical status. Origins in other Lands investigates the enduring collision between the real and the simulated by pulling focus on a ‘cosmopolitan’ bird, found worldwide but endangered in New Zealand.

About the Artist

Rachel Hope Allan

Rachel Hope Allan is an artist, educator and writer from New Zealand currently based in Ōtepoti Dunedin. She is a Principal Lecturer and studio coordinator in Photography at New Zealand's oldest art school, Dunedin School of Art. Her complicated relationship with photography has had her hiding from mountain lions, x-raying New Zealand's most critically endangered native wildlife and developing tintypes in the basements of historic houses. Her practice extends from first-generation, traditional, darkroom-based processes through to digital and hybridised liquid photography.
