Throughout his life, Don Binney had a strong personal connection with the Waitākere coast and surrounding areas. In 2010 Binney published Drawing the Waitakere Coast which pairs a series of 24 drawings capturing the area from Huia to Te Henga with text by the artist.

Te Uru is delighted to present the Portage Ceramic Awards 2023. This annual award provides a vital platform to showcase the diversity of contemporary clay practices in Aotearoa.

Alan Ibell’s diorama-like installation in Te Uru’s window space, Exterior (with Buried Keepsakes) takes its inspiration from an earlier painting by the artist, House at Night (2020). The shift to three-dimensionality allows Ibell to expand further upon themes that regularly underpin his work: enclosure, isolation, the tussle between interior versus exterior.
