Much like a composer might write a musical score, Len Lye composed sequences of motion, harnessing intangible energetic forces to sculpt matter.

Len Lye is known for his lifelong preoccupation with movement, and the idea of making motion tangible.

Forming part of the Make Visible: Taranaki project, this collaborative work is a window-based intervention in the Len Lye Centre that makes visible different spectrums via the lenses of identity and gender. The Unfurling comprises two distinct yet spiritually connected window works by Novak and Clothier.

Since 2022, the Govett-Brewster Art Gallery has been supporting artist Shannon Novak in an ongoing project Make Visible: Taranaki.

Taranaki artist WharehokaSmith (Taranaki, Te Ātiawa, Ngāruahine) created this wall painting, which echoes the building’s unique architectural space.

Lalaga: Le Hui Fono is an exhibition and programs that emerge from an ongoing commitment to deepen relationships of collaboration, mutual support, and reciprocity between Pasifika artists and communities in Taranaki and across Te Moana-nui-a-Kiwa.

Interlaced: Animation and Textiles is the first major exhibition dedicated to the reciprocal relationship between these two artforms.
