Artists from across New Zealand and even overseas have been working together to create brand-new artworks at a unique event held every two years in Whangārei.
CollaboratioNZ is a seven-day artistic enterprise that every second year sees adventurous artists from across the world keen to work in tandem with others gather at Whangārei Heads to share and learn new skills.
At the biennial event, they grow their art practice while collaborating to produce wonderful, unexpected art pieces in a sublime setting at Manaia Camp on McDonald Rd.
More than 70 artists, including some from Poland, the US and Canada, are taking part in the collaborative creativity, with the works they’re creating going up for auction at the Hihiaua Cultural Centre on Saturday from 11am.
