Tokenin: Small Worlds
A collection of Tokenin's best works over the last 5 years, together for the first time!
Glimpses into magical worlds, hidden between the leaves. A moment with a fairy, a happy flower, the dust, and the dirt. These works explore the idea of seeing something special and been seen back.
Limited edition, archival quality prints. Come see illustrative art in the contemporary medium of digital painting!
Online gallery for the week of the event only. More details on the Tokenin website.
ode to mum
What is a mother to you? Is it about children or nurturing? Is it feminine or perhaps red? In many different mediums we are exploring what motherhood means to us. Whether it's an ambivalent attitude towards motherhood or how mother earth has influenced us. Come join us and we will provide the space and opportunity for you to reflect on your experience of this primary relationship.

Reflections
My exhibition "Reflections" is about a personal experience, emotions, dreams through artworks.
I hope visitors enjoy it and maybe find their own associations and reflections in the exhibited paintings and books.
Everyday treasures, lasting pleasures
Working with clay is therapeutic, but also quite challenging.
There are so many different clays and techniques, if I lived to a hundred I would not have had time to try them all.
Look to the Land
Ko ahau te taiao, ko te taiao, ko ahau – the ecosystem defines my quality of life.
Barbara Wheeler most often works with foraged botanicals and waste textiles diverted from landfill. Leaves and flowers give colour to the clothes she designs; local plant fibres feature in her baskets and sculptures. This exhibition is a tour of Australian and New Zealand lands, continuing the conversation about the inextricable links between nature and wellbeing.
Guild of Woodworkers Wellington and Local Artists
