New Painting

Shane Cotton's 'New Painting' delves into the collision of Indigenous and European time systems, warping time, memory, and nature through the lens of his Ngāpuhi whakapapa. His new works place ancestral figures in surreal, cosmic landscapes, exploring hybridities, transformation, and the cyclical nature of history. Cotton’s paintings blend history, mythology, and technicolour imagery, reflecting on the layered, nonlinear relationship between the past, present, and future in Aotearoa. Writer Anthony Byrt explores this new body of work further in the essay 'Super Radiance' which can be read online: https://gowlangsfordgallery.co.nz/exhibitions/354-new-painting-shane-cotton/
Join Gow Langsford and Shane Cotton for the opening event on Saturday 12 October from 2-4pm at our Onehunga Flagship.
