The In Residence, In Residence series was inspired during the first COVID-19 pandemic lockdown in 2020. Not being able to interact with the natural world in her usual manner, Toni cast her eye over her house and garden in such a way that enabled her to look at this constrained world with a different perspective. Was she locked in or was the world locked out? The folded and manipulated structures that were her response provoke reminiscence of the way we lived for that time.

The Manawa-Mangrove book is Toni Hartill’s response to the discovery of her grandfather’s notebooks (he was a surveyor in the early twentieth century) in which he sketched plants, wrote poems and made field notes. It mimics a botanist’s sketches of one of Auckland’s iconic coastal plants. A plant that is either reviled as a harbinger of and contributor to sedimentation or hailed as a nursery for fish and other sea life.
