How do materials carry memory, connection, and message?
Join acclaimed textile artist Georgina May Young for a conversation about her exhibition "I rongo i tō tohu – Heard your message".
In conversation with DPAG Curator Lucy Hammonds, Young will share insights into a practice that brings together weaving, embroidery, raranga, and relationships to place.
Regarded as a leading contemporary textile artist within Aotearoa, Young’s practice is firmly grounded in materials and relationships which tie together weaving, embroidery and raranga.
Young is exhibiting as part of 'Suite', a regular exhibition series dedicated to artists living and making from Ōtepoti Dunedin.

He roimata ua, he roimata tangata
The team at Dunedin Public Art Gallery extends their condolences to the whānau of Barry Cleavin ONZM (18 December 1939 – 1 September 2026). One of Aotearoa New Zealand’s most acclaimed printmakers, Cleavin lived a life shaped by his art and the world around him. Born in Ōtepoti Dunedin, Cleavin’s life as an artist took him on journeys across the country and throughout the world. His work was insightful, political and immediately recognisable, and he was an erudite and much-admired member of our creative community. His legacy will remain in many works held in museums and private collections both home and abroad. Moe mai rā e te Rangatira.
