Whakawhiti: Toi WhakaTAA <> Toi WhakaATAWhakawhiti marks a milestone moment in the work of the national Māori printmakers collective through the work of six key members in Gabrielle Belz, Maude Cook-Davies, Vanessa Edwards, Jasmine Horton, Faith McManus and Alexis Neal. This exhibition celebrates and reflects on 20 years of this unique collective with signature works from across this time presented alongside new works.
Economies of DeferralThe exhibition includes artists from Taranaki, Aotearoa and working internationally between the 1980s to the present whose work bears witness to, advocates from within, and troubles our understanding of the profound economic, social and political transformations that have shaped the last four decades.

Bird Land: Te Kāhui ManuFrom taoka tuku iho to contemporary moving image, Aotearoa’s birds take centre stage.
In te ao Māori, birds and their habits are closely observed, carrying rich metaphor, poetry and instruction. This extraordinary gathering of artworks brings centuries of human engagement with birds to life. Bird Land: Te Kāhui Manu is an immersive exploration that highlights the significance of manu and te taiao—birds and the natural world—in Aotearoa New Zealand’s art history. Gathering birds within the environments they inhabit—forest, river, marsh, mountain, ocean, shore—Bird Land invites reflection on ecological interconnections alongside layered cultural meaning. Balancing vulnerability and wonder, it encourages connection and contemplation of the enduring inspiration of New Zealand’s birds.
