KAUKAU is pleased to present ‘Oat Milk Coffee’, a collection of 6 paintings by Te Whananui-a-Tara based poet & artist, Briana Jamieson.

“Oat Milk Coffee is inspired by a visit to a friend and painter Will Hadwen’s studio, observing the textures and shapes of the paint in his work; spending the afternoon talking about paintings; and sharing soup, cake and coffee in their upstairs studio kitchen.”

Wai Marama 💕

“I fell in love with the moon,
she waxes and wanes
and I feel it all.
I fell in love with the moon,
like the water did –
but maybe I’m in love with them both”

🌙 Moon Water now available to view online.

Nau mai haere mai Wai Marama ngā Olivia Asher.
Moon Water ~ Wai Marama, explores the idea of ‘moon charged water’ - sacred water embodied; a transference of energy; of wairua. It speaks to the innate connection and relationship of moon & water, entailing that neither can exist without the other.

Olivia Asher (Ngāti Tūwharetoa) is an interdisciplinary artist based in Tāmaki Makaurau. Olivia embraces experimentation and spontaneity through the materiality of her work. Making becomes a meditative process, where she immerses herself in the present moment, exploring the exchange between intention and intuition.

Where to start with Sphaera. I recall about 10 years ago, an email came through from Suni, ‘temporary soap dealer’, regarding some gorgeous soups made right here in Pōneke by her sister Ali. They embodied exactly what we’ve always thought important to us - careful, considered and elevated products made with love. We have to consider ourselves lucky to have this incredible range in our world for the last decade, I know how hard Suni and Ali have worked refining and perfecting Sphaera. It’s been a such a pleasure being a part of your journey, and though you’ll leave a gap at KAUKAU in the shape of a perfect cube, I can’t wait to see what you do next. Arohanui Suni & Ali
