You cannot help but be shaped by the sea, wind and earth living on the southern end of Te Ika-a-Māui. In turn, we use our hands to give form to the inevitable connection we feel to these places. Five artists connected to the Greater Wellington region - the Kāpiti Coast, Ngaio, Wairarapa, and the South Coast - bring together their art across mixed mediums (sculpture, paintings, drawings, ceramics, jewellery) to share their love for nature. All artists are connected through The Learning Connexion in Taita, Lower Hutt.

Erin Jaeger-Freeborn's solo show The Unity of Opposites are a series of sculptures in response to the pre-Socratic philosophy of Heraclitus, where seemingly contradictory forces are not only interconnected but essential to each other's existence. The forms oscillate between tension and harmony, precision and gesture, structure and chaos, movement and stillness.
The sculptures, composed of thousands of hand-cut pieces of paper, form undulating surfaces suggesting motion and depth. Inspired by rivers, currents, wind patterns and topographical mapping the pieces capture the quiet energy of natural systems. From afar the sculptures appear fluid and organic but upon closer viewing reveal the precision of numerous deliberate placements. Ultimately the sculptures suggest that identity, perception and nature are dynamic negotiations, born not of stillness but from continual exchange.
