Intangible ideas to be sustained and materialised in artworks, as insightful and ethical responses to local, global social, political and cultural discourses
The centre challenges social, cultural, and political assumptions, through research methods that provoke critical thought rather than offering single-solution answers. Rooted in integrity and guided by Te Tiriti o Waitangi.
Our members aim to function as critics and conscience of society – in the questions we ask, the futures we imagine, the methods we develop and the creative practices we produce.
