Audio Described Gallery Tour - The tongue to them, Artspace Aotearoa

These artworks from Aotearoa, Malaysia and the Philippines all emerge from a shared family of Austronesian languages to articulate experiences of colonial impact from the distinct vantage points of the region. In this exhibition, collectivity and language are considered tools for resistance. If language shapes how meaning is made, what conversations can be had between groups who share a root tongue?

Join Nicola Owen from Audio Described Aotearoa and Kaitohu Director Ruth Buchanan for an exhibition tour tailored for blind and low vision audiences and gain insight into the diverse works on display which span weaving, sculpture, drawing, and film.

Booking is encouraged but not essential.
