Travelling Light
13 June - 13 July 2008
Lonnie Hutchinson, Sista7, 2003. Collection of Christchurch Art Gallery. Purchased, 2003.
A month-long exhibition timed to coincide with the month of Mātāriki, when the Pleiades star cluster rises in the morning sky.
Inspired by the vast journeys undertaken by early Māori celestial navigators, Travelling Light is full of star maps, sea journeys and night flights – from Shane Cotton’s night paintings through to Lonnie Hutchinson’s electric lightscape.
