This event is inspired by the stunningly honest photographic series Vessel, by Leala Faleseuga. We invite you to join us and reflect on your own birth story. In following Faleseuga’s personal diary-style model, you’ll have time to reflect back and creatively capture key memories from when you became a parent. 

The amalgamation of the past and present is reflected in Lyttelton-based contemporary jeweller Elfi Spiewack’s exhibition, In Splendour Moot. Jewellery has always been worn as a symbol of self-expression and identification even if the meaning, purpose, materials and designs have changed drastically over the centuries. Spiewack seeks to challenge preconceived ideas of jewellery by re-examining it, questioning material value and juxtaposing the beautiful and precious with the abject.
