Small World by Martin Parr -presented by Milford

Known for his colourful, witty photographs of tourists around the world, Parr’s work captures the humour, quirks and shared experiences of travel. Small World is one of his best-loved series and offers a fascinating look at how we explore the world—and ourselves. Exhibited at CAN Community Gallery in Napier.
