little rain

One imagines a delicate pitter patter, in the evocative title little rain, the first glimpse into the world conjured by artists Cat Auburn and Karena Way. Featuring a carefully selected body of work in photography, sculpture, video, and sound, the first joint exhibition by Auburn and Way explore the fragile state of innocence in human development and in nature. A soundscape designed by Way will resonate throughout the gallery, contributing a capricious mood enhanced by Auburn’s sculptural centrepiece – a life-size horse reposing on a grand bed of straw.
 
Cat Auburn is a graduate of the PG Diploma programme at Elam School of Fine Arts. She was recently curated into the 2008 NZ Sculpture OnShore biennial. Karena Way completed her Masters at the Elam School of Fine Arts and participated in the 2007 Elam Art UpFront project for the Gus Fisher Gallery, Auckland.
