This exhibition is now closed

Marking the close of Lisa Reihana's year as Trust Bank Canterbury Artist in Residence for 1992 will be her interactive multi-media installation at the Annex.

This installation, containing elements of sound, video, and photography, is Lisa Reihana's first solo exhibition in a public gallery.

Lisa Reihana (Ngapuhi) travelled to Christchurch early in 1992 to take up the residency on site at the Arts Centre. A major project for the year has been the research development, and production of her new animated film which will premiere in Christchurch in 1993.

As well as being a working artist/film maker, she has had a variety of professional experience in the arts, including working as a freelance curator and video editor. In 1991 she lectured in the Intermedia Department of the Elam School of Fine Arts.
