THE DOMAIN
Oil on Canvas by Karl Maughan
Inspired by the emotion of the Auckland Domain, The Domain Collection commissioned a series of works that captured the endless landscapes and intangible beauty of Auckland's great space.
Karl Maughan
One of New Zealands most recognisable artists, Maughan's work explores the cultural space of gardens, capturing their fantasy like worlds through his exaggerated aesthetic. His use of colour and simplified compositions offer a contemporary take on one of paintings most traditional subjects.

David Straight
Straight’s practice explores the importance of the built environment and urban landscapes on the everyday lives of those who inhabit them. He explores the often under-appreciated yet culturally and aesthetically significant aspects of the New Zealand landscape. Straight was commisioned to capture the most intimate moments within the Domain, Newmarket and Parnell.
