Link to the Show / Show Notes
Peter Peryer has been taking photos for over 30 years What he can do with the camera is phenomenal, and the way that he talks and writes about photography is even better.
Peter is the second artist to be invited to live in a Plischke-designed home in Alexandra; the previous recipient of the Henderson residency was writer Vincent O'Sullivan. This house is totally, totally fabulous (in a Frank Lloyd Wright sort of way). The view is to die for: you look over the Clutha River and onto the far-away hills of the Maniototo that Grahame Sydney likes to paint. Peter is at the beginning of his residency, and we talked about the challenges he was facing photographing those quirky things that Alexandra is known for: autumn leaves, rocks, and rabbits.
You can see some of his photos on his blog. Let's hope he produces a 2009 Calendar.
