Natural Magic of New Zealand’s Landfills, The — Deluxe cased edition

Wastemaster, Skip

This superb coffee table book, made from recycled pizza boxes, is a celebration of the most phenomenally picturesque, and often overlooked, landfills of New Zealand. Stunning, inspired, panoramic colour images from the international award-winning photographer, Skip Wastemaster, The Natural Magic of New Zealand’s Landfills illustrates the diversity of dramatically different landfills with brooding, powerful and iconic images. A large, sumptuous format, with glorious full-colour photos, it will be a high-quality memento. An unusual scratch ‘n’ sniff cover and a complimentary CD soundscape of seagull cries make this publication from Garbage Press an obvious candidate for the 2009 Montana NZ Book Awards Lifestyle and Contemporary Culture category.

Look inside

Camouflaged as a ripped suitcase, so as not to disturb the wildlife in their natural environment, I tried to capture the essence of some of New Zealand’s most overlooked treasures — Skip Wastemaster, Envirotographer of the Year, 2007.
