Untitled
On show 12 August to 12 November
Untitled references the consideration that the artist’s works are consistently without a title. Susan Te Kahurangi King (b1951 Ngaati Hauaa te iwi whaangai) makes work that speaks for itself without any written language to describe or frame them.
The artist herself stopped verbally communicating at the age of four years old and was, much later, diagnosed with autism in 2015. There is an immediacy and confidence in Te Kahurangi King’s mark-making that is compelling.
It is not surprising that she has exhibited extensively around the world and her drawings are housed in important public collections. Untitled shows a small range of Te Kahurangi King’s practice, highlighting ten early and ten recent works.
