'Visiting The Poor Knights Island', a work by Auckland artist John Papas, draws from Papas observations of the New Zealand landscape and the awe-inspiring power of the natural world. Papas seeks here to generate an overwhelming sense of man’s humbling insignificance in the structure of the world, exposing our false assumptions of safety among the dangers hidden in the depths of nature. His use of earthenware, steel and glass seeks to reflect the properties of the natural environment and provide an unfettered approach to the making of art through his materials.
