cloud ribbon is a new exhibition by Kathryn Tsui at Object Space.
Kathryn is a textile based artist who currently lives in Tairua in the Coromandel Peninsula.
In beaded compositions and woven wall-hangings, cloud ribbon explores Kathryn’s own cultural heritage and craft practice by reflecting on intersections of Asian and European cultural histories.
Sofia spoke with Kathryn about the show and some of the research that went into it.
Andrea Gardner is a Whangārei-based artist. The Arts House Trust are currently hosting her exhibition When Mauve Does the Tango in association with the Auckland Festival of Photography.
The exhibition is an exploration of staged photography, presenting subjects in forms of disguise, exploring the ideas of identity, selfhood and the tension found in female experience.
Beth caught up with Andrea about the exhibition and what else she’s up to.
Five new moving image works have launched as part of Huarere: Weather Eye, Weather Ear, Te Tuhi’s contribution to the global World Weather Network.
Curated by Janine Randerson, the screening programme features the five latest sound and video commissions created by three artists: Jae Hoon Lee, Riki Pirihi, and Tia Bennett.
One of the projects, Tūhononga (Cluster and Connection) Parts I and II by Tia Barrett (Ngāi Tahu, Ngāti Mamoe, Te Rapuwai, Waitaha, Ngāti Maniapoto, Ngāti Tamainupō) explores the pūrākau (stories) from our past which we can draw on to benefit the future of our whenua.
Sofia spoke to Tia about Tūhononga (Cluster and Connection) as well as Huarere: Weather Eye, Weather Ear in general.
