At 11am there will be a Niuean Fakamonuina blessing followed by light refreshments. All are welcome to attend.
Haia brings together a body of recent paintings and drawings by John Pule. With bursts of bright colour, painterly suggestions of water, vast tropical vegetation and silhouetted human figures, the works presented in Haia further the rich artistic vision that has made Pule a widely celebrated artist in Aotearoa and beyond.
This body of work was created by Pule over a nine-month period in Niue. In January 2023, he was offered a studio by the Niue Government in a space located in the historical Fale Fono parliament building in Sialekula, Alofi. Pule states, “The studio faces the ocean on the west side of the capital, Alofi. When I paint, I hear only the ocean. Sialekula, the name of the land the Fale fono is built on, means ‘red gardenia’.
