Directing Weeds

"Directing Weeds." Lichfield Street Car Park. August 2008. Ajr

I’m beginning to feel a little deviant as I find myself prowling about in dark city car park buildings with my camera – all in the name of art and blogging. And today it paid off because I found another stunning light-box work by Auckland photographic artist, Dieneke Jansen. Her series, “Directing Weeds” is part of the High Street Project Offsite Programme and you’ll find works in a number of city car park buildings. I listed one here last week, entitled 'Where the Grass IS greener." The lushness of the grass is made all the more vibrant and eye-catching by the gloomy confines of the car park buildings.
