PANEL & PAINT - Chris Meek & Zasha Skye

Chris Meek

Spending Time on Earth - This work lives in the cracks - in the spaces between what happened and what almost did. It’s about near misses, quiet wreckage, late night clarity, and the kind of beauty that shows up after the damage is done. These pieces hold confession and cover-up, tenderness and grit. Nothing here is clean. Nothing is simple. It’s about sticking around, sifting through the mess, and finding something worth holding on to before it all slips away.

Zasha Skye

These oil paintings explore the human figure as a vessel of mana — grounded in Papatūānuku, shaped by cloth, colour, and the whenua of Aotearoa. Rooted in femininity and presence, the works don’t seek to explain, but to invite: to evoke feeling, stir thought, and open space for reflection. In this shared exhibition, clarity yields to curiosity — meaning emerges not in what’s shown, but in how we choose to see.
