Ma 間 is a new exhibition curated by Yuka O’Shannessy on at the Arts House Trust at Pah Homestead.
With a background rooted in her upbringing in Japan and exploration of artistic mediums and making, including her pursuit of fashion studies, Yuka has a refined, distinct, and thoughtful aesthetic as the Director of Public Record.
Ma is often translated to mean ‘gap’, ‘space’, or ‘interval’, referring to a space that creates harmony between elements. Exploring space, connection, and transformation, Ma 間 traverses the Japanese concept with a ‘series of intentional pauses, moments of tension, openness, and calm, that invite reflection and connection within an environment.’ Showcasing the works of 28 artists as sourced from the Arts House Trust’s collection, as well as Public Record’s and other selected artists, this exhibition presents a considered curation, presentation, and appreciation of craftsmanship and refined and unique visual expression.
Sofia had a kōrero with Yuka O’Shannessy, as well as Director of the Arts House Trust at Pah Homestead, Anita Tote-ah, about the show.
