Opening Talk and Kai: Cindy Huang

Join us to celebrate the opening of 'Offering', a new installation by Cindy Huang.

The artist will welcome you with kai and an artist talk where she will discuss her research, the creative process, and the stories reflected in her work.

'Offering' delves into Cindy Huang’s exploration of the Tauiwi Chinese New Zealand community in Te Matau-a-Māui, both past and present, with a focus on the region's market gardens, gardeners, and grocers.

This event will feature on a bus tour transporting visitors between Napier, Hastings and Waipawa on the weekend of 'Paerangi: Waipawa', an exhibition which features seven Toi Māori artists and takes place in various non-gallery spaces in Waipawa from 19-20 October.

Cindy Huang (born in Rotorua in 1997) currently lives and works in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland. In 2023-24 she was based in Heretaunga Hastings. She holds a Master of Heritage Conservation in Museums and Cultural Heritage (2022), and a Bachelor of Fine Arts (Honours) (2019), from the University of Auckland. Her work has been exhibited across Aotearoa in recent years, with recent solo and collaborative projects presented at Sumer, Te Atamira, Satellites, Chez Derriere, Studio One Toi Tū, and Meanwhile.

Free, no booking required.
