C U R AT E D B Y V E R I T Y JOHNSON, SUSANNE AXELSSON & COCO JANSSEN — YWCA AUCKLAND: 18X18 — Being eighteen years old isn’t for the fainthearted. 18X18 delves into the perspectives of eighteen Auckland girls on the brink of adulthood.

NAOMI AZOULAY — WOMAN OF VALOUR — Badass females embracing equity and addressing cultural gender imbalances. A series of fierce, colourful, delicate and detailed collage works, which reject the religious iconography they are based on. The meaning of the works morph as Azoulay, an Aotearoa/Middle Eastern– based artist, layers references from historical eras, diverse cultures, and elements of wellknown art. The result? Engaging and dramatic, contemporary works, in which the subjects stand on their own, please themselves and seek approval from no one.
LO U I S B R E TA N A — BLESSED ART THOU — Spain used Catholicism as a major colonial tool, subjugating native Filipinos into the pious obedience of a European god; syncretising or eradicating the indigenous culture and its ‘un-Christian’ beliefs and practices. Monotheism justified righteous oppression and supremacist ideology that we still see today. By sharing the blessings of ancient Philippine deities, this exhibition hopes to break down religious territoriality and demonstrates that many faiths can coexist in harmony and good will.

She then took these drawings and turned them into hand-sewn cushions made with upcycled woollen blankets. By bringing these two key images together, Yates explores how gender roles are portrayed in society and creates a space for women to reflect on and enjoy their bodies.
GEMMA STEWART — DEAD LEGENDS — Five years ago, Gemma Stewart discovered the creative release that cross stitching brought her and was inspired to embark on an ambitious project, an exhibition that would celebrate deceased, golden-era hip-hop artists and their lyrics in cross stitch. Although faced with the challenge of keeping her vision alive, stitch by stitch she has realised her exhibition.

LAURA ALLEN — SECRET GARDEN — Allen's embroidered botanical illustrations showcase the undesirable parts of nature which we so often try to remove or hide - imperfections, sickness and death; those classic reminders of our own mortality. In art and in life - curling leaf tips, limp stems, dead leaves and dropped blossoms all tend to be discarded while pristine leaves and new blooms are favoured. These works highlight a secret garden full of things we usually choose to discard or ignore.

By breaking down the themes, structures and vocabulary in other texts, we can use those features to improve our own work in all modes of writing.

Because writing is a form of self-expression, it can be more than just fun; it translates thoughts and emotions into words. Anyone can benefit from these techniques.
