Makareta Jahnke: Tauira - acknowledging the Past, Present & Future and the intertwining of two cultures through the language of fibres. There was an unspoken language of learning between wahine Maori and Pakeha through the methods of cross-stitch  and whatu and the use of muku and woollen fibres.

'Nau I whatu te kakahu, he taniko taku'.
'You wove the body of the  cloak, I added the taniko'.

Georgie Dorothy Read: paintings to re-present plant species found within the forested, riparian zone of the upper Waimamaku area

Tania Patterson: I have used four endangered native  frogs/pepeketua as my confidants. These four endangered native frogs species are primitive and ancient creatures that have changed little in the last 70 million years.

Rachel Millar: Blowing in the Wind, Fate Modern and Truth (photographs on photorag).  With dystopian eye, these artworks consider threats to the very air we breath through incidents of disenfranchisement and/or the plight of a mass disconnect from the natural 'breath' of the world. 

Denise Batchelor: Untitled (flower) and Raindrop - photograph on photorag.  Work reflecting personal encounters within nature; quiet moments that may evoke connection and / or empathy.

Sarah Lenton: Pods - felted wool. This materials based process is a combined act of manipulation, me and the material. Felted forms suggesting pods, seeds and next like structures
