This exhibition is a celebration of ten years of The White Room Creative Space and includes works from 30 artists who use the studio. From its inception in 2014, The White Room has provided support to artists to explore art making, develop their art practice, connect with the arts community across Ōtautahi, and showcase their work through exhibitions and creative projects.
Works in the exhibition include a range of mediums, including painting, collage, drawing, and printmaking, and reflect a diverse range of subjects from abstract pattern-making to pets.
The White Room Creative Space: People who face barriers to participation in art and creative activities need supportive and non-judgemental places where creativity is the common language. The White Room is a community creative space that enables opportunities to make, participate and share art alongside others. We’re welcoming, accessible and supportive. Through this, artists build confidence, connections and embrace new opportunities. The White Room Community Creative Space was developed in late 2014 in response to a growing need to foster and develop the creative talent of people supported by SkillWise. With its own dedicated creative space, it has become an exciting and successful place where artists can explore and showcase their artistic potential.
