Artspace Aotearoa are pleased to announce the opening of their next exhibition The tongue to them, opening on Friday 25 July from 6pm, all welcome.

In the exhibition artworks from Aotearoa, Malaysia and the Philippines utilise collectivity and language as tools for resistance, as part of our ongoing annual question: “Is language large enough?” The tongue to them features work by Darcell Apelu, Martha Atienza, Heidi Brickell, Buck Nin & Yee I-Lann. The works in the exhibition all emerge from a shared family of Austronesian languages to articulate experiences of colonial impact from the distinct vantage points of the region. If language shapes how meaning is made, what conversations can be had between groups who share a root tongue? Alongside the exhibition Artspace Aotearoa presents a programme of related events, more information available on their website.

This exhibition is presented in association with Te Whare Toi o Heretaunga Hastings Art Gallery and with the support of Te Wānanga o Aotearoa.
