Three years in the making, Sophia Smolenski’s installation uses the accoutrement of the mount-maker’s workshop and the furniture of exhibition display as frames for the presentation of 22 art works the artist has commissioned from a range of contemporary New Zealand makers who were invited to create items for display in response to mounts she first constructed for objects in her personal possession. This engaging project is a wonderful installation, that is conversational, collaborative and diverse. Come and hear the artist in conversation with curator Milly Mitchell-Anyon as they discuss the evolution of the project in an illustrated talk followed by a question & answer session in the gallery space.
