1When the Eye Begins to See Marti Friedlander takes a series of self portraits and is interviewed on her life and career. Her work was the first to document post war New Zealand, exploring ideas of identity and politics through the fresh eyes of an outsider. She focuses on themes of protest and demonstration, Maori society and portraits of artists and writers. Fiona Pardington discusses her 2002 exhibition One Night of Love. Composed of photographic enlargements of pornography from the 1950s Pardington subtly changed existing photographs or put them into a new context to allow different interpretation. "Images considered risque in their era - subjects posing naked or semi-clad with overtones of soft porn, or women showing tainted physical and emotional histories - are now viewed with sadness, or, when seen through the eyes of the 1990s, as a parody." Her Hei Tiki series are photographs of old tiki from the Auckland Museum, judged not perfect enough for display.

Sandy Adsett, the principal tutor at Toihoukura in Gisborne discusses the success of the polytechnic in teaching students about traditional materials and techniques and combining these skills with a contemporary and personal vision.
