A Place to Call Home

Group Exhibition , Bergman Gallery, June-July 2023

Home. It is a small word with significant meaning. It is a word that conveys powerful emotion. It means safety, belonging, acceptance, love and security, the tenets that we crave above all else.  A Place to Call Home speaks to the generational presence of Asian New Zealanders and reveals the role that their art plays in New Zealand's contemporary cultural landscape. The artwork, by established and emerging New Zealand Asian artists, conveys how these practitioners translate ancestral legacies within their own, immediate surroundings to examine concepts of home and belonging.

 Through paintings, photography, sculpture and ceramics, A Place to Call Home places a bright focus on the declaration that New Zealand is indeed, home.
