Reece King is a Tāmaki based painter, currently working from his Ōtepoti studio after being awarded the 2025 Frances Hodgkins Fellowship. His embodied practice delves into the materiality of painting, diving head first into a material lead practice—in which the painting and its fleeting figures unveil themself through the act of painting. With King looking to painting as a kind of absorption, an absorption of his surroundings that find their way into the works themself.  

His current exhibition at Anna Miles, Drop Sheet Snow Angel continues in King's embodied practice. Presenting a body of paintings both acrylic on canvas, as well as the incorporation of coloured pastels. A beautiful dance between organic movement and mechanical geometric imagery. A playful and colourful world which showcases King's approach to paintings, not just as a practice, but rather a way of being in the world.

Maya had a kōrero with Reece about the show, and overall Practice.

Roy Irwin performed 20 minutes of mesmerising tunes during the first of two acts on Friday Live today.
