Buttercup and Lavender presents the idea of the sweetness of awe, the space is transformed into a scene of whimsy, celebration and memory. Curated by and composed of female artists, the space draws inspiration from curator Peter Shaw’s house at the edge of Pirongia.
Back Room: A Hyphen Exhibition brings together artists of Asian descent to reflect on their existence as workers and creatives in the world. The reality of being an artist is to constantly play a game of tug of war between one's practice and the costs of sustaining a livelihood.
