Jo Luping could be considered one of the best practioners of capturing New Zealand’s coastal pastoral landforms and indigenous flora in a graphical medium. Her work uses a variety of substrates, photographs, prints and silk screens. The muted palette is representative of her native New Zealand.

Jo’s Raglan Landscape is a vertically arranged printed triptych of panoramas featuring flax, Raupo (New Zealand’s Bulrush) and Cabbage Trees,which are large gnarled members of the lily family. This triptych captures the windswept forlorn feeling that is typical of New Zealand’s West Coast.
