100% Pure You (2012)

2 min 4 secSingle channel / Digital Video / Colour / Sound

"We are Colin McCahon depicting the verdurous Otago landscape. Slip into nature, consuming its essence as a tool for commercial enterprise. PBPR reframes NZ’s outward identity as an uneasy patriotism. A solo quest. The obsessive bionic quest to be your “best” undertaken through the labyrinth of contemporary images of New Zealand"
