Beyond the Waves – Exhibition Opening

Exhibition and Shows

15 May 2026 to 31 May 2026 Annual Event

Beyond the waves, curated by renowned interdisciplinary artist Salote Tawale, gathers a compelling suite of video works by Pacific Islander artists who challenge, connect, and reimagine identity across oceans, histories, and generations.

Together, these works trace a rich network of stories – of place, memory, lineage, and belonging. They speak in distinct voices, each grounded deeply in the Pacific while simultaneously reaching outward, expanding the contours of contemporary dialogue. Woven together, they create a resonant and expansive chorus that reflects the vibrancy, strength, and diversity of Pacific Islander creative expression today.

Beyond the Waves features works by Pacific Islander artists Morgan Hogg, Sione Monu, Emily Greenwood and Edith Amituanai.
