Tie One, The Spell's Begun is an enthralling new sculptural installation by Ōtautahi artist Jen Alexandra, casting a space for darkened contemplation. A smokey veil, tied ribbons and cords, bronze, bows, rose scent, altars and fairy doors inspired by the gallery architecture combine to make a charged atmosphere. Jen is interested in nature-based worship and folklore as a way to understand ‘notions of spirit’ through intuitive technologies – and in this project, the ritual objects of elusive love.
