Art exhibition
The next exhibition at Kohukohu’s Village Arts gallery is In Print, by two Kerikeri artists, Mark Graver and Jacqueline Aust. Graver, a full fellow of the Royal Society of Painter-Printers, is an award-winning printmaker, specialising in acrylic resist etching, digital printmaking, and video art. Aust’s practice is to respond to places in time through printmaking, sculpture, and installation, and her work will include prints and ceramics. The exhibition opens at 11am on April 27 and runs to May 26.
