WHAT TO EXPECTThis event is free. This event will be held in the gallery. This will be a standing/walking event with seating available. This location is accessible. BIOGRAPHIES Dayle Palfreyman moved to Tāmaki Makaurau from Te Whanganui-a-Tara in recent years, and works across sculpture, installation and video. Dayle’s sculptural practice has primarily used metal, concrete, wood and beeswax to create environments that explore the edges of bodily autonomy through the tensions between the industrial and natural materials employed. Dayle graduated from Massey University in 2020 with a BFA (Hons) and has had exhibitions at play_station in 2020, City Gallery Wellington in 2022, at Enjoy Contemporary Art Space in 2022 and 2023, and the Physics Room in 2024. August Ward grew up in Tāmaki Makaurau and completed her MFA from the Elam School of Fine Arts in 2023. August’s painting practice is concerned with the visual markers of affluence and aspirational consumerism, in particular the emblems of fashion, beauty, interior design and reality TV. Working in oil and graphite, these symbols become pictorial playthings for colour, composition, and surface. August has exhibited in artist-run spaces and galleries, including Melanie Roger, Paper Anniversary, Envy, Paludal and Ivan Anthony (upcoming).
