I Runga O Ngā Puke (travels over feeling) w/ Jamie R H: 23rd January, 2026.
Jamie R H is a Te Whanganui-a-Tara Wellington based artist and curator, primarily working within spaces of language to produce site specific artworks. That both draws from, and speaks to her familial histories within Te Matau-a-Māui Hawkes’ Bay.
Her current exhibition I Runga O Ngā Puke (travels over feeling) on at Window Gallery showcases a durational language-based artwork, presented through a wall mounted LED sign. Displaying a stunning presentation of language in an act of constant movement. An unfolding of text that does not seek closure, but instead seeks to withhold it. Dazzling viewers with small glimpses of language that flow into a fragmented river of stories. The LED sign embodies this role as an actor of sorts, in a state of a continuous performance of language, time, and movement.
Maya caught up with Jamie about the show and overall practice.
