Join us for a conversation between Reclaimed Land: Tāngata, Tiriti, Taiao curators Israel Randell and Susan Ballard. Israel is a multidisciplinary artist, curator, and educator whose practice is grounded in Indigenous futurisms, spatial storytelling, and whakapapa. Her work often takes the form of installation, writing, and performance — exploring the relationships between time, place, and identity through a distinctly Māori lens.
Susan Ballard is an art writer, curator and professor of art history and environmental humanities at Te Herenga Waka Victoria University of Wellington. She is currently working on a new book tracing an environmental art history of Aotearoa New Zealand, to be published in 2027.
