Opening tomorrow, HARAKEKE by Jon Tootill at @sand Opening tomorrow, HARAKEKE by Jon Tootill at @sandersoncontemporaryart.

Grounded in the landscapes of rural Aotearoa, the exhibition centres on the harakeke plant, its sculptural form and shifting light distilled into bold, geometric compositions. Drawing on Ngāi Tahu heritage and toi Māori practices, each work feels both restrained and deeply expressive, balancing quiet stillness with a sense of movement.

On view until the 24th April. Read more about the exhibition and Jon Tootill via the link in our bio.
