Wharenui Harikoa is the world’s first crocheted wharenui, currently showing at the Civic until 27 July. 

Created by artists Lissy (Ngāti Hine, Ngāti Kahu) and Rudi Robinson-Cole (Taranaki, Ngāti Pāoa, Waikato, Ngāti Tahu/Ngāti Whaoa), the Wharenui Harikoa merges traditional Māori practices with modern technology, bringing joy, colour and connection to Aotearoa through its vibrant neon wool and intentionality.

Presented by Auckland Live in collaboration with Lissy and Rudi, the wharenui encapsulates joy and embraces the viewer in a feeling of warmth and aroha. 

The experience of entering the whare invites stillness, dreaming, and reflection, of which is supported by its welcoming visual and audio accessibility. 

Sof had a kōrero with Lissy and Rudi about the making of the Wharenui Harikoa, the reception thus far, and how they hope viewers engage with the work. 

Louise Bourgeois: In Private View is a new exhibition currently on view at The Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki. Louise Bourgeois born in 1911, was a French-American artist with a career spanning seven decades of her life, one of the great figures within modern art. She was best known for her large-scale sculptural work and installations, but also had a practice within drawing, painting, prints and fabric work. Bourgeois work often dealt with these psychologically charged themes of memory, family, the body and the subconscious—commonly drawing from her own personal memories and childhood.

Louise Bourgeois: In Private View, showcases work from a never publicly exhibited before private collection. This intimate collection showcases works that span over six decades of her career. From early paintings, to a closer look at her iconic spider series, her sculpture of hanging spiraled entangled limbs, The couple, to later fabric work made in the final years of her life. A beautiful and intimate showcase of Louise Bourgeois work through time.

Maya caught up with senior curator of global contemporary art at The Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki, Natasha Conland about the show.
