No Control
Ä€kina Heretaunga, 10-18 June 2023
solo exhibition
An exhibition in response to Cyclone Gabrielle which devastated many regions but had a significant impact to the Hawkes Bay. In reflection to the importance and impacts of water.
 
...'As someone who works with clay, I depend on it. Without it I'm crumbling dirt in my hands and making dust.'
 
A sink to take the literal into practice, a pitcher and tumblers to celebrate the community coming together to fill each other's cups up, a large water storage vessel, and a community rain chain..As a maker I sought comfort in the thing I knew best and found peace through the process. I hope that No Control can give people a sense of calm and hope just like I felt when making these.
