Art Not Science, Episode 62: A rebroadcast of a conversation between Rhea Maheshwari, Kahurangiariki Smith and Charlotte Huddleston.( 0:36:30)
Episode Information
This episode of Art Not Science is a rebroadcast of one of our earliest episodes; Art Not Science Episode 4 this evening becomes episode 62. Artists Rhea Maheshwari and Kahurangiariki Smith discuss their exhibition Two Oceans at Once with Charlotte Huddleston, reorienting historical time in order to critique colonial legacies. The force of the ocean as both metaphor and articulation of home remains present in Kahurangiariki’s practice. One of the artists commissioned to develop a new moving image for our current exhibition Homing Instinct, Kahurangiariki’s work Mā te Moana was formed during time in Rarotonga, swimming near to where many ancestral waka departed for Aotearoa. Tracking travel between Rarotonga and Cambodia, Mā te Moana responds to the push and pull of the ocean, and ongoing indigenous mobility through the moana.

Art Not Science - Episode 55 - Luke Shaw( 0:31:26)
Episode Information
In this episode, we’ll be sharing with you two audio tracks by Ōtautahi based artist Luke Shaw. These works were originally made as part of an installation work, Sleepwalker, which was shown at RM Gallery in Tāmaki Makaurau in late 2023. In this presentation the work is stripped back to audio only, by the Opawa 45s: Luke Shaw and bandmate Luke Wood. Sleepwalker draws from an archive of found slide images, and uses processes of rerecording, imagining a sleepwalker as a kind of spectral figure with the ability to move fluidly between memories and cinematic planes.
