Winter Group Show brings together six leading Pacific artists whose works challenge any notion that winter is a season of restraint. Instead, the exhibition is a vibrant celebration of colour, imagination and connection, where each work enters into conversation with the next.
Featuring new works by Fatu Feuโu, Reuben Paterson, Mahiriki Tangaroa, Tanja McMillan, Sylvia Marsters and Andy Leleisiโuao, the exhibition marks McMillan's first presentation in Rarotonga. Marsters exhibits both recent and earlier works, including woodblock prints that are being shown publicly in Rarotonga for the first time. Its inclusion reflects a full-circle moment: more than two decades ago, her woodblock carving and printing practice was introduced by Fatu Feuโu during a course at ELAM School of Fine Arts in Auckland.
