Two fluids - air and water
What if the air was water? what if sea-levels rise and some of the air becomes water? and what will become of the sea’s wonderful inhabitants as the oceans warm?
Is there anything in the world more graceful than the leisurely flight of an eagle-ray?
Sometimes we only really SEE the astounding beauty of the natural world when it’s taken out of context….Mountains, bush as homes for eels; whales swimming through air….
Humbugaa presents “To Be Continued…” as part of an ongoing dialogue between architecture and the visual arts. Students from the Wellington School of Architecture and artists who have trained or taught at The Learning Connexion show work that reaches across the disciplinary divide between architecture and the visual arts, while preserving a commitment to their own discipline. The work connects a range of creative processes and formal tactics, and explores how some of these could scale up to impact the way we make cities.
Take the works of half a dozen guitar makers and throw them all in one gallery to see how they all relate. In some cases the only thing they will have in common are strings, bridges and tuning machines. Some of these luthiers have been in their field for forty years, others recently got the guitar making bug.
"Apply" came as an idea to engage with the audience through our own and collaborative work, to create and achieve something that would inform and engage the community in the dialogue; we really enjoy working together. This exhibition is a showcase of practise and an invitation to learn and enquire.
Song Lines. When one throws a pebble in the water, the ripples travel on beyond being still visible to the naked eye. This exhibition is inspired by the echoes of a Nikau forests. Trees and pagan rights and spirits are all connected . This is the base of this series of the works collectively and yet has it own individual stamp on it. For the “Is and Isn’t “are closely connected. Like day and night. To me dawn and dusk are the letter box in the day. Where night slips into the day and vice. Namaste.
Bruce and Roger have each been taking photographs for over half a century. Recently, Bruce has been combining old film and digital cameras with a mixture of lenses and Roger has been exploring high-resolution digital cameras (up to 151 megapixels) and developing “Scrollups” as a way to affordably present large images (at least one metre in each dimension) without the hassles of the weight and bulk of large works framed under glass.
This exhibition portrays Aotearoa’s nature and wildlife, created by two artists whose ethnic origins are East Asia. Yeong Kyung is from South Korea and Ayumi is from Japan.
Six Stories is the culmination of a collaborative project between an illustrator, sculptor and photographer; Scrawl Collective. Based loosely on a board game (itself based on the playground game Telephone) each artist was presented with an original artwork by another of the group and asked to respond in their own medium. The resulting work was in turn passed to the next artist who translated, created and passed their new work on again. As the works rotate, vocabularies emerge, building narratives which germinate, bloom and dissolve.
“My artworks for the exhibition “Summer Loving” are inspired by generous New Zealand summertime. In particular, I love wildflowers that surround us; they are so delicate and gentle.
