Have your artwork in lights
- Porirua City Council
- Local artists have the opportunity to see their work on display in public and up in lights. Porirua City Council is seeking artists to feature over winter 2024 and summer 2024/2025 in the city’s lightboxes. Each lightbox exhibition will run for about five months, with six works by a single artist or collective on display during each exhibition. The lightboxes were installed in Porirua city centre in mid-2022 to showcase local artists and their work, says Pātaka Art + Museum Director, Ana Sciascia. “They provide an opportunity for curators and artists to exhibit work in a dynamically urban, high-profile environment.”

Broccoli X Queer Joy
- Thistle Hall Community Venue
- The uniting visual theme of this art exhibition is the broccoli, which our team has embraced as a symbol of queer joy and frivolity during this difficult time for our rainbow communities. With transphobia and online hate speech continuing to rise, we wanted to create a space of joy and silliness that gave a platform to rainbow artists of all generations and backgrounds.

Proposal for a Body Reading List
- Enjoy Contemporary Art Space
- Proposal for a Body posits that sound and text-matter are mediums that can be regarded as inherently queer in their expansive and corporally liminal states. Jo Bragg and Georgina Brett draw on the music and writing of artists Loren Connors and Kim Gordon to communicate through sound and poetry abstract-experience; what is inexplicable.

Theme - Gatherings
- Thistle Hall Community Venue
- Many hours are spent working up layers in the background, using mixed media, of oil, acrylic, old papers and architectural plans. Then scraping, peeling back and adding before the desired patina is achieved. The layers in the background often reflect the items painted on top, worn and chipped by time and use.
