Robyn Kahukiwa’s powerful artworks celebrate Māori identity, strength, and storytelling. Her paintings open pathways into mātauranga and intergenerational narratives that shape Aotearoa’s cultural landscape.
Giles Panting works with lace and cotton to revisit traditional symbols of rank and wealth. In Fray, these once-powerful emblems are softened and reworked in fabric, encouraging visitors to look again at the histories they represent. It’s a quiet but thought-provoking installation about how stories of power are passed down and reconsidered.
The Suter Art Gallery Te Aratoi o Whakatū presents Multiples, a major exhibition by Aotearoa artist Christopher Ulutupu, bringing together a constellation of photographic and moving-image works across the gallery.
Fired Forward brings The Suter’s ceramics collection into focus, celebrating decades of making, experimentation, and quiet breakthroughs in Aotearoa studio pottery and contemporary clay practice.
A striking selection of photographs of children in Aotearoa from the late 19th century to today, We Are Young explores how childhood has been captured across generations—from early studio portraits to contemporary collaborative works.
The Suter is pleased to provide space for a diverse range of independently presented events, supporting cultural, creative, and community activity in our region while maintaining a clear distinction from the Suter’s own curated programme.
