Small World
Pon Huey Min, Peter Simpson, and Melody Renaud
3 September – 1 October
In Aotearoa, insects represent the vast majority of our animal diversity, yet they often go unnoticed. Small World is an interactive digital installation that invites audiences to draw their own bugs and release them into an evolving ecosystem. This work celebrates creativity and quiet observation. By participating and viewing these digital creations, the audience is invited to slow down, reflect, and find empathy for the small lives that sustain our world.

Other People’s Flowers
Kirstin Carlin, Julia Holderness, Gavin Hurley
Until 20 September
In Other People’s Flowers, Kirstin Carlin, Julia Holderness and Gavin Hurley turn to the language of flowers to speak both with and through the history of New Zealand art. The exhibition takes its title from the act of gathering what already exists – motifs, compositions and gestures – and re-presenting them not as imitation, but as a form of attentive response. Flowers become intermediaries: symbols of homage, translation and quiet disruption.

The Studio and the City
Group Show
12 September – 17 October
For more than a century, New York has been a city of artists’ studios. From converted warehouses and industrial lofts to purpose-built workspaces and private retreats, the studio has served as both a site of production and a stage for artistic identity. It is where artists test ideas, develop visual languages and negotiate their relationship with the city around them. This exhibition brings together works by those whose practices have been shaped by New York’s creative landscape across generations.
