An intriguing photograph of an extinct bird joined other works from New Zealand in The Met in 2025. Solitary Female Huia by Fiona Pardington (2006, inkjet print, reprinted 2024) is one of a series of confronting, mournful bird photographs, several of which can be seen at the Venice Biennale now and through until November 2026. The Met exhibits just one photograph from this remarkable group, but it is such a compelling work that much can be learned from it about the artist, her philosophy and the cultural traditions she draws on.
Whether you’re watching a cult classic, a family favorite, or a blockbuster under the stars, there’s something uniquely New York about seeing a movie outdoors on a warm summer evening.

And honestly? It may be one of the smartest travel decisions I have made.
WeWear Australian is launching in SoHo on Saturday 4th April.
