About the exhibition

Twenty-six Gallery

Twentysix presents Playground, featuring work that explores nature, dreams, and lived experiences from across Aotearoa.

Ranging from earth pigment paintings to rug tufting, these pieces encourage deeper reflection on how we remember, experience, and reimagine the world around us. Moments from everyday life are made ethereal, where nostalgic symbols and intimate scenes invite a playful dialogue between both tangible and imagined memories.

Jess Swney explores connections to her female lineage through her textile practice, using monks cloth and wool to explore relationships between people and place.
