How to Disappear is an exhibition by multidisciplinary Ōtautahi-based artist Steve Carr currently on at Gow Langsford Gallery. 

In a body of work composed of photographs, a moving image work, and sculpture, Carr stages a series of failed attempts at disappearance – reminding us that no matter how much we try to hide, something in us always remains visible. 

Seen crouched and stood behind invisibility shields, bushes, trees, and coloured smoke bombs, Carr repeatedly fails to camouflage himself – giving the works a certain absurdity and comedic quality that has been a recurring theme in Carr’s practice.

Sofia caught up with Steve Carr about the making of How to Disappear and his creative process.

Auckland Homelessness Spike, Nurses Strike, and the End to Same Day Enrollments w/ Labour’s Carmel Sepuloni: 31 July, 2025

According to outreach providers, Auckland has had a 90% increase in homelessness since September last year.

Auckland Council’s Community Committee Chair Angela Dalton says government policy changes have “made it harder for people to access emergency housing.”

The committee has called for the government to work with frontline agencies to address the issue.

Yesterday, nearly 36,000 nurses, midwives, and healthcare workers went on strike for 24 hours.

This followed the breakdown of mediation talks between the nurses' union and Te Whatu Ora Health New Zealand.

The union says they are striking because of the ‘dire’ staffing situation.

And the government has announced a series of electoral law changes, including the end to same-day voter enrollment. 

For our weekly catch-up with the Labour Party, News and Editorial Director Joel spoke to Deputy Leader Carmel Sepuloni about all of these issues.

They started by asking about the increase in homelessness in Auckland.
