Ann is recognised as one of New Zealand’s leading photographic artists. Her most recent research engages with plant narratives and histories, in particular the intersection of botanical histories and human-knowledge systems. Ann is interested in how the perceived power play between plants and humans can be redefined and modified through art. In 2016, Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki developed the major mid-career survey exhibition Dark Matter: Ann Shelton, curated by Zara Stanhope, which toured to Christchurch Art Gallery Te Puna o Waiwhetū in 2017.
