    Juliette Hogan

    A cross over too often ignored is between textile, design and fashion design. Textile is a discipline in itself, and when presented via functioning items of clothing, it becomes an incredibly powerful mechanism for storytelling. Juliette Hogan is a name synonymous with stream-lined contemporary women’s wear. The brand has been established for over 12 years now. With her first store opening in Ponsonby, Auckland in 2007. But did you know, Juliette initially trained in textile design, a love of which plays a key role in the creative development of her lines every season? This podcast will be talking with Juliette about the core creative behind her work, the artists she works with to develop her textile designs, what inspires her and heritage, which has made her the woman she is today. This podcast was made with the help of Liquid studios.

    Doris De Pont

    Doris De Pont – Well known in Aotearoa as an influential fashion designer, originally trained as a social anthropologist, which taught her about patterns and models of behavior through different societies and how they express themselves. Fast track a few decades and her unique insights on how she views her surrounds have culminated in an exquisite visual collection of us as Moana people, expressed through fashion and adornment. Too often we envisage dystopia. We’re conditioned to see the negative. De Pont has visualized a version of utopia in 'Moana Currents: Dressing Aotearoa now' and it is beautiful to see. The show was co-curated with fashion journalist Dan Ahwa and is on display at Te Uru Contemporary Gallery, Waitakere until December 1st. We talk in-depth about this exhibition in relation to who we are, now, as people of the Moana. Special Thanks to Doris De Pont and Liquid Studios.

    Dane Mitchell

    New Zealand artist Dane Mitchell‘s artwork – Post Hoc, is currently on as part of the Venice Biennale in Italy. Known as the Olympics of art, the Venice Biennale is pretty much the ‘top’ for artists. New Zealand’s 2019 representative is Dane Mitchell, whose project delivers cryptic lists of the vanished, the lost, or the destroyed. Mitchell’s work broadcasts a vast inventory of bygone things to locations throughout the city via fake tree cell towers, providing smartphone access via hotspot which you can hear the lists. At the Palazzina Canonica – the epi-center of the work, scrolling lengths of paper lists emerge from a printer placed high upon a structural frame, they cascade down settling in ripples on the floor, forming an elegantly minimal installation of all that which has been lost. This podcast was made with the help of Liquid studios.

    Avant-Guard Auckland 1971-1979

    Natasha Conland – curator in contemporary art at the Auckland Art Gallery talks about current exhibition Groundswell: Avant-Guard Auckland 71-79. When a broad and deep undulation of the ocean, caused by a distant gale or seismic disturbance occurs it’s called a groundswell. When a rapid spontaneous growth in support of a political opinion occurs, it’s called a groundswell. So what happened when a group of Auckland artists started making highly experimental art in the 70’s? Groundswell: Avant-Guard Auckland 71-79.
