The artist to Antarctica Fellow in 2010 Laurence Aberhart enthralled the New Zealand Scott Base team as they watched him make his camera work in such extreme cold temperatures. In fact, Shackleton’s photographers Herbert Ponting and Frank Hurley had used exactly the same sort of camera.

This exhibition comprises all 23 photographs of Aberhart's unique and insightful take on this remote sub-continent. Included are the twisted, convoluted and tortured ice formations of the Pressure Ridges, Mt Erebus, Cape Evans, White Island and Hut Point, Ross Island. Aberhart also brings his own unique insights on Shackelton’s Hut and Scott’s Terra Nova Hut.
