The Capturing Aotearoa collection brings together the black and white pieces that collectors choose most often. If you are not sure where to begin, this is the best place to start, because it is a curated view of the work that resonates with people again and again.
What is the Capturing Aotearoa collection?
Capturing Aotearoa is the best selling collection: the black and white landscapes that collectors return to most. It gathers the pieces with the widest appeal from across New Zealand, so it is a natural starting point for a first artwork or a considered gift. Browse it in the Capturing Aotearoa collection.
Why do these pieces resonate?
The best selling images tend to share something: a strong, simple composition, a sense of place, and a mood that holds up on a wall for years. In black and white, that staying power is even clearer, because the images are about form and light rather than a passing colour. Many are also award recognised, which you can explore on the Awards page.
Where were they photographed?
The collection ranges across the country, from Fiordland and Queenstown to the Central Plateau and the coast. If a particular region draws you, you can also browse by place and subject through the New Zealand wall art collection.
How to choose your piece
Pick the image that stops you, then choose the finish and size for your space. Metallic canvas in a floating frame suits a warm, classic room, while frameless acrylic gives a contemporary feel. Every piece is made to order and ships free and tracked worldwide, as described on The Process.
