    The story behind my work for Te Puna o te Atua

    Some time in 2024 (I think it was in the middle of the year) I found out Te Awahou Collective had an upcoming exhibition at Te Manawa. This was a huge thing for me and I am thrilled to be part of a group that had the opportunity to exhibit there. I was mulling over…

    The past five to six weeks have been full on. As Andrea (a ceramist and one of our lecturers) would say ‘head down, bottom up’, I was working none-stop on my two pieces for the student exhibition. For this semester I was exploring and playing with scale/size, and in line with my subject matter (liminality)…
