Book excerpt: Fiona Pardington's latest work is a series of large-scale portraits of life-casts made of Maori and Pacific peoples during Dumont d'Urville's voyage to the Pacific in 1837-1840. Life-casts were a pre-photographic form of recording a person's image and were often collected for ethnographic studies, phrenology and as curiosities. As works of art in a contemporary context they are poignant reminders of the humanity embodied within the casts and the photographic image. This exhibition explores the meaning of the casts, their individual history and their function in relation to portraiture and photography.
