The unicorn rent decrease, a hole in the wall, and your average landlord family member. Never fear, for Salene is here and so are these other * helpful resources *:
Salene's here to help you out with wall fixture debates, reasonable clean-ups, and the mystery of the disappearing landlord. Whakarongo mai nei! Also, remember to check out these other helpful resources if you need a bit of extra support:
After first occupying vacant spaces in a post-stock-market-crash Auckland in the mid-1990s, public art curators ‘Letting Space’ re-emerged in the wake of the 2008 global financial crisis. Confronted by the thin net of social welfare, the waste of the capitalist system and the climate emergency, it brokered spaces for artists to think and act radically, outside gallery walls.
A big and bright new book out of Massey University Press, ‘Urgent Moments’ chronicles these projects the artists that drove them.
To hear about the projects, Frances caught up with editors Mark Amery and Sophie Jerram.
cloud ribbon is a new exhibition by Kathryn Tsui at Object Space.
Kathryn is a textile based artist who currently lives in Tairua in the Coromandel Peninsula.
In beaded compositions and woven wall-hangings, cloud ribbon explores Kathryn’s own cultural heritage and craft practice by reflecting on intersections of Asian and European cultural histories.
Sofia spoke with Kathryn about the show and some of the research that went into it.
Tāmaki Makarau singer-songwriter Nganeko joins bFM to discuss their latest sirenic single 'Simple Illusions' produced by Brandon Haru and Brent Parks.
Born from a trasitional period of life of "finding my feet", Simple Illusions explores vunerability and the creation of walls and boundaries that are, ultimately, just an illusion. As Nganeko puts it: "we keep ourselves in a rut sometimes and just gotta do something... go outside!"
Listen to Nganeko chat with Sofía about sonic inspirations, Casio watches, and hit chemical manufacturing film Dark Waters.
NZMM rolls around again and there are still gems to be extracted and played on the show, with many goodies 4 U. Thanks and respect as always to @DujonCullingfrd for another selection of bonza beats. Salute!
