Sof had a kōrero with Director and Curator of Contemporary Art at Gus Fisher Gallery Lisa Beauchamp about their current group exhibition, What we choose to remember.
And Maya caught up with artist Eva During about her current show on at The Arts House Trust at Pah Homestead, Under The Bridge.
Eva During is a multidisciplinary artist, and recipient of the arts house trust and Dunedin School of Art graduate exhibition scholarship 2025. Eva works within spaces of sculpture, ceramics, audio and installation, in which she navigates the complexities of personal identity through her experience as a first-generation immigrant.
Her current exhibition at the Arts House Trust at Pah Homestead, Under the Bridge, follows Eva’s journey as she retraces the path of Aotearoa’s first Chinese immigrants. Visiting these historic sites of the goldmining settlements of Lawrence and Arrowtown, through tracing the path of the Clutha river.
Throughout the journey, Eva collected these organic materials of the land's temporal memory, bringing them back into the studio in which the organic materials were transferred onto pieces of material that Eva then hand stitched into 100s of shā bāo that form a river bed along the gallery floor.
Bringing together a beautiful display of collective memory and dialogue that speaks to the quiet strength that is passed down through generations of Chinese immigrants.
Maya caught up with Eva about the show and overall practice.
What we choose to remember is a group show bringing together artists Hiria Anderson-Mita, Köken Ergun, Tada Hengsapkul, and Kulimoe’anga Stone Maka, currently showing at Gus Fisher Gallery.
Together, through their respective practices and materiality, the artists question and inquire into ideas of nation building and national identities – each contemplating different histories of the respective geographical and political landscapes they connect to, questioning the way we remember these pivotal moments. With a plurality in voices, the space invites a reflection on the multiplicity of experience, but also the closeness of these respective accounts. As a whole, the exhibition asks us to reflect on these narratives and connect them back to our present – if this is how these moments in history have been remembered, how will we remember our present when it too becomes history?
Sof had a kōrero with Director and Curator of Contemporary Art at Gus Fisher Gallery, Lisa Beauchamp, about the show, the artists’ works, and the thematic conceptions that bind them.
