Identity Exhibition Features Emerging Talent at Mangere Arts Centre

The public is invited to view ‘Identity’, a new group exhibition curated by Vanessa Wynyard and featuring emerging artists from South Auckland. The exhibition features woodblock prints, digital art, painting, weaving, drawing and photography by Te Kori Fatuloa, Dana Rapata, Lome Tanuvasa, Aaron Unasa, Kerrie-Anne Van Heerden, Allen Vili and Vanessa Wynyard. Vanessa says, “everyone has a story to tell. A narrative about who we are, where we come from and what makes us singular in the world. I believe our surroundings define our physical, spiritual and emotional being, shaping us into the person we are today”.  The exhibition runs from 5 – 24 December, 2009 at the Mangere Arts Centre, 93 Bader Drive, Shop 17, Mangere Town Centre, Manukau City. Entry is free.
