Containing Multitudes, 2020.
At Aotearoa New Zealand’s City Art Gallery Wellington Te Whare Toi is a new exhibition by multimedia, multi-award winning artist, Zac Langdon-Pole.
Entitled Containing Multitudes, the work is full of juxtapositions to prompt thought — walk over recycled borer-riddled native timber laced with gold leaf or ponder a 60-million-year old tortoise shell fossil vacuum cleaner mash-up.
