Te Rua Raranga weaves together the diverse works of ArtsLab photographers and creative practitioners who represent the depth, scope and innovation of emerging creatives in Aotearoa New Zealand.

It is the second instalment of ArtsLab’s Harakeke Project, showcasing the rich, often unseen fruit of creative enterprise. This group of photographers bring a fresh and nuanced perspective, the viewer is invited to dwell where they have been and how they have seen, to reflect on how individually we experience the world, and how together we thrive in communicating our collective understanding.

This show runs from 23rd May – 9th June as part of the Auckland Festival of Photography and with generous support from Soar Print.

*Harakeke, or flax is our indigenous and most versatile plant species, symbolising the strength and presence of an object or an initiative when its elements are woven together.
