67206 Days, 2276 Full Moons

April 10 – May 4, 2024

6720 days, 2276 full moons since the signing of the Treaty of Waitangi…who’s counting? Nine New Zealand artists from the Handshake Project with the support of Creative New Zealand and in partnership with Stanley Street Gallery present a powerful and thought-provoking exhibition.

Becky Bliss, Nadene Carr, Aphra Cheesman, Nina van Duijnhoven, Neke Moa, Mia Straka, Caroline Thomas, Sarah Walker-Holt, Raewyn Walsh

These artists contemplate themes of discovery, origins, integration, transformation, virtue, cultural respect, differences, and conflict.
