The Remembrance Project
This series of photographs was made in and around the small Bay of Plenty town of
Kawerau. The photographs were made during several walks over the course of this
year. Kawerau is my hometown — my family lived there for about 30 years. Kawerau
was established in 1953 as an adjunct to the newly constructed Tasman Pulp and
Paper Mill. Kawerau takes its name from a Maori chief who lived in the area around
1200AD.
