Poneke five piece Debt Club came up for Fancy New Band and played three stripped back songs from their new and unrealesed album. Debt Club brought to the ear waves this morning a truly amazing set.
Adrienne Vaughan is a Tāmaki-based painter, driven by her boundless fascination and exploration of her mediums. In which she produces beautiful abstract paintings that employ an enriched vocabulary of colour, line, shape and form, and brings them into a world of her own. The forms themselves hover in a space of peculiarity, hinting to a kind of still life with a touch of surrealism, embodying a mysterious cast of characters.
Her current exhibition at Anna Milles Gallery Blue Myrtle, showcases a shift in Vaughan's painting practice, a slowing down of sorts, to allow for a new sense of intimacy with the painted surface. A softening and more tender approach to her use of pattern making within the canvas. letting the paints inherit materiality and its trace of application linger on the painting's surface, creating its own sense of pattern making within the painted image.
Maya had a kōrero with Adrienne Vaughan about the show and overall practice.

Echo is this year’s Chartwell Trust New Commissions exhibition at Artspace Aotearoa, showing new work by Tāmaki-based emerging artists Erika Holm, Ngaroma Riley, and Tarika Sabherwal.
Guided throughout the year by the mentorship of senior artists Judy Darragh, Nova Paul, and Anoushka Akel, the artists investigate mythology and storytelling through painting and sculpture, positioning these practices as critical sites for examining multiplicity and the complexity of existence.
Sofia spoke to Erika, Ngaroma, and Tarika about their respective works in the show and their experience of this mentorship programme.
