Upcoming Exhibition

Priscilla Rose Howe is an artist based in Ōtepoti, Aotearoa. Their work is predominantly figurative depictions of ideas around phenomenology, the supernatural, fantasy and a blurring between reality and fiction. A big fascination around film and our relationship to the physical/built environment are big inspirations also.

Howe has a Bachelor of Visual Communication Design (hons) from Massey University and some of their recent exhibitions include Rabid at Jhana Millers Gallery, Springtime is Heartbreak (group show) at Christchurch Art Gallery and a series of lithographs presented at the Aotearoa Art Fair from a residency with Auckland Print Studio.

Liam Krijgsman is based in Ōtautahi and is a graduate of the Ilam School of Fine Arts. He was a co-facilitator of Hot Lunch, an artist-run space which ran from 2020 to 2021 and contributed to the publication Hot Lunch:Leftovers in 2023, which documented the project. His most recent exhibition was More than this at Te Moroki - Centre of Contemporary Art in 2022. Alongside his art practice, Liam works for Christchurch City libraries as a learning specialist.

Krijgsman's practice explores the ideological undercurrents found in disparate cultural artifacts such as one-hit wonders, novels, and action films. Through these familiar forms, he examines how ideology shapes human perception and relationships, often manifesting in subtle, ontological ways. Despite the conceptual weight of these themes, his material interests remain grounded in the everyday—engaging with the banal novelties of contemporary life. His work frequently reinterprets objects in absurd, comical, and deliberately inefficient ways, challenging the market-driven logic behind their design and function.
