Te Aro TexTILES is a group show featuring the work of 3rd year College of Creative Arts students from Massey University.
In celebrating Te Aro through the medium of Textile Design, this exhibition showcases surface pattern as a means of observing and analysing the urban environment.
To study at Massey, the students have travelled from all over the country; with all of the exhibitors being new to Wellington, this exhibition visually documents how they have connected to the city. Observing and engaging with Te Aro through several perspectives; with walking and drawing framed as a mode of encounter with the world around us.
Sketches of the inner city were then developed through the medium of sublimate printing and digital, hand-painted and collage processes.
Te Aro TexTILES presents a range of textile and ceramic tile designs that celebrate the inner city's rich diversity through colour, texture, pattern, mark, and movement.

It is just as important to take care of our Mental health as it is our physical health and in fact, they are often intertwined.
Over the following week 10 - 16th OCTOBER five artists come together to present an exhibition of visual art that explores the notions and necessities of refining our understandings of our inner minds, to find that place that we can call a safe haven from the occasional destructive forces at work around us.
Alongside the exhibition various practitioners will lead workshops that will enable us to build a set of tools in order to live a more balanced, harmonious lifestyle.
Thanks to the kind donations of DeepWave & Wellington City Council this whole event can be enjoyed for FREE!

A creatively curated exhibition of unique and exquisite heritage textiles & crafts, with written and visual narratives from many corners of the world, will be on display.
Wellington city is a melting pot of people from many parts of the world, more so than ever. The wider Wellington Community accepts and celebrates this global diversity through cultural events, food festivals and eateries which helps raise awareness, understanding and acceptance of each other's culture and heritage.
This exhibition represents the fabric of our Wellington Community through a rich display of cultural and heritage attires, textiles, accessories etc., from NZ, Pacifica, Indonesia, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, India, Bhutan, Yemen, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Africa, Guatemala, Peru, Japan, Ghana and many more.
The generational knowledge, skills and techniques used to create these beautiful works are slowly disappearing in this modern age, and some are already lost. Come and join us on this visual journey.
Opening Night on Monday 26th September - 4pm to 8pm - All welcome.
We will also run a series of audio-visual presentations on selective days in the adjacent Thistle Hall Meeting Room. For more details, visit https://atitravel.nz/textile-exhibition/

When you explore the streets of Wellington, you’ll find nice little palaces everywhere.
There are buildings all across this city known as electricity substations. They power our lives and are a presence in every neighbourhood.
Some have operated for a century and many feature art inspired by the communities they serve. Yet, these striking structures are seemingly invisible.
Nice Little Palaces is a solo photography exhibition that brings them into the light and celebrates the important role they play in powering Pōneke. Come along for an electrifying experience!

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.

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.
From Wednesday 10th to Sunday 14th August, at 5pm daily, Katy Soljak will read a story from My First Real Pash and talk about her work.
My First Real Pash is a book launch/art exhibition. Described as gripping, funny, tragic and cathartic, these 12 paintings and accompanying 12 stories condense the experience of a whole life into a series of works. The book with its frank and colloquial style offers a subtle yet biting critique of New Zealand Society. Katy Soljak will read from her book during the exhibition.
Painting has been a constant pursuit of all three of us women. We have known each other for many years and share similar viewpoints on life and the world around us. We chose to exhibit together as we all share a great joy in creating and wanted to share our creativity to a wider audience. We paint generally from a representative viewpoint but then we often wander from this into abstract form.

In our Exhibition we plan on providing inspiration for other emerging artists, especially those who have, or will shortly be, finishing study in the Creative disciplines. We will be showing how it is possible for emerging artists to create their own artistic identities and unique styles of art, whilst staying true to themselves and their passion for creating. We will be showcasing high quality art which we hope will inspire others to get creative themselves. Our artworks will portray objects and subject matter that convey our own unique personalities, emotions and interests. There will be artwork in a range of media including Glass, paintings, prints, ceramics, digital illustrations and bronze work.

Artist Louis Mikaere has created a body of work inspired by Te Ao Maori and the stories that have been passed down by our ancestors. He believes that these stories have the lessons and metaphors to better understand ourselves and the world we live in. In western society Pakiwaitara often get categorised as myths and legends however to us as Tangata whenua these stories are imperative to us as people of the land and more!
Mauri Ora!
Nine Wellington artists combine to bring you a wintery collection of newly crafted items and artworks. The vibe is ethereal, beastly, wintry and wistful, bringing fantastical artwork and an occult vibe to the year’s darkest days. Signature scents will be molten beeswax, petrichor, cooling lava flows and leather.
Exhibitors; Rebecca Hawkes, Gemma Proebst (Exomoprh), Thorn Richards, Isobel Te Aho-White, Jess Stab (Hex), Darcy Woods, Sonja Howard, Chimera and Pepper Raccoon, working in a wide range of media but brought together by their inventive otherworldly art.
This exhibition comes from admiration of Nature. It gives us everything we need, and we should care more about our Nature, to pay it back.
Of Natalia's artwork, people have said " Your paintings reflect joy and the healing energy".
