Conor Clarke | Trenton Garratt | Mark Henley | Veronica Manchego | Cam O’Connell
Daire Sanat (Istanbul) hosts a group show of New Zealand Artists working abroad. Drawn from practice in Berlin, NYC and Istanbul I COULD HAVE SWORN I, is a multimedia show exploring the inconsistency between fact, and the memory of the fact. Prosthetic memory and Phantom Limb Syndrome couple to create the shows curatorial focus; how we perceive ‘experience’ within a media saturated reality.
The show is facilitated by Mark Henley (The Russian Frost Farmers, NZ) and made possible by generous support from Hall architectural interiors (Istanbul)
Full curatorial text and artist bio’s available here.
Opening : 10th August, Tuesday / 19:00 / Daire Sanat
Artist talk : 14th August, Saturday / 16:00 / Daire Sanat

Our Bro Arlo is hosting some art markets in Wellington next Sat at MYGALAXI GALLERY.
You should go check out the space while browsing some arts. Bring your own candy floss cause you might get sucked up through a worm hole and as far as im aware there ant no food in a worm hole.
