"El Camino" translates to the road or, as I prefer it,the way.
Berlin based artist Alba Rose sings el camino in her song The Long Road chronicling the journey of making the way through transitional periods, exiting shadow into light. She joins Sofia Kent on Morning Glory to discuss her latest EP First Light.
First Light presents as a melodic chapter, offering insight into Alba's poetic journalling from break ups to reconnecting with an extensively large Spanish family.
Her biggest body of work to date, First Light evokes a shimmery indie-soul essence paired sweetly with a New Zealand summer.
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.
