This event has been postponed, following the recent announcement that Aotearoa is in Alert Level 4 until further notice.
While the majority of works in this exhibition were made during lengthy periods of isolation, these recent paintings elicit a remarkable sense of optimism. The exhibition takes its title from a painting of the same name (in turn borrowed from Ernest Hemingway's 1926 novel), which signals the inevitability of time marching on despite the devastating context of a global pandemic and acknowledges the beauty and privilege inherent in witnessing the potential of each new dawn.
