23 portraits recreate current Lyttelton locals as notable historical and everyday figures from Lyttelton’s rich past, encompassing a diverse cross-section of Lyttelton’s early communities, reflecting the town’s social history, its connection with the sea and the area’s development over time. In addition, each portrait is accompanied by combinations of archival audio, courtesy of Nga Taonga Sound and Vision, and including audio by and about the present-day subject. The portraits literally speak for themselves.
