Sylvia Marsters returns to exhibition in Rarotonga with her new solo project, E Moemoe'a Naku 2. A veritable sequel to her 2022 solo exhibition E Moemoe'a Naku - A Dream Of Mine (Bergman Gallery, Auckland), Marster's new paintings take on a deeper, dreamlike quality, conveying a viewing experience halfway between the visible and invisible, offering glimpses of scenes, real and imagined.
The artist writes; "Twenty years ago, I came to Rarotonga for the first time as the Creative New Zealand artist in residence. It has given me a meaningful connection, a strong foundation exploring the unique characteristics, nature and culture of this precious environment. My new exhibition is an ode to my 'Ipukarea', my ancestral home, which continues to play a significant role in my work."
