Join Abbie La Rooy, Kiki Hall and Michael Prosée alongside Katherine Rutecki, Kevin Yu and Hannah Valentine in this curator/artist panel discussion, followed by the exhibition's opening event which kicks off at 6pm!

Pushing Parallels is a celebration of re-learning and questioning traditional art practices. Showcasing a diverse group of multidisciplinary artists from Aotearoa, they are encouraged to experiment, pushing the limits of their mediums to create a playground of colour and form. Curated by Abbie La Rooy, Kiki Hall, and Michael Prosee, the exhibition features works from The Arts House Trust collection alongside invited artists who, although formally trained in one discipline, have ventured into new artistic territories. By embracing this shift, they challenge conventional modes of artmaking and explore innovative ways to express their ideas.
