From rusted utes retiring in rural fields to gleaming custom hot rods cruising through Whangamata, Roadscapes celebrates the everyday beauty and artistic expression of the vehicles that travel our roads and reflect our everyday lives.

For four decades, photographer Derek Smith has explored the way New Zealanders travel, work, and express themselves through the vehicles they drive. Roadscapes is his compelling photographic journey through the heartland of New Zealand capturing our unique car cultures and the social landscapes they inhabit across Aotearoa.
