Join us as we welcome Rick Allender and Katy Cottrell to Toi Poneke Arts Centre for the opening of Taputeranga: Above and Below. Taputeranga: Above and Below celebrates the vibrant life of the Taputeranga Marine Reserve on Wellington’s south coast. Artists Katy Cottrell and Rick Allender explore the connection between land and sea through intricate works crafted from natural wood veneers. Katy delves beneath the waves, illustrating native marine flora and fauna with a Victorian-era scientific flair. In contrast, Rick maps the reserve’s surface with bold, modernist marquetry inspired by its geography, human structures, and natural landmarks.Thanks to Fortune Favours, Victoria University Coastal Ecology Laboratory and Wellington City Council.
