Stages reflects the immigration story of one families journey to New Zealand. It spans three generations movements across four countries in search of new beginnings. These journeys are expressed in multiple media (charcoal, watercolours, ceramics, pen & ink) reflecting each of their personalities and experiences. Stages contemplates what we as immigrants bring to our new home, wisdom, hope, vitality but mostly resilience and diversity.

delimit is a group show of contemporary jewellers and jewellery adjacent practitioners. It features the work by 33 artists from across the motu. The artists have worked in a range of media exploring the concepts of interstitiality and liminality. If an object is a discrete form in a given state, then it stands to reason that it must have an ending, an edge or threshold, where said object and or its state ceases to be and something other begins, and between these beginnings and endings there must be a space, or a clearing, the smallest of intervals between things, a void, a new space, so that what is not there has the same weight as what is.
