Auckland-based artists Matt Ellwood and Yoon Tae Kim collaborate to investigate the influence of branding in the concrete jungle for the latest Te Tuhi Billboard project. Brand recognition is one of the most visually dominating aspects of the urban commercial environment. Multinational franchises have made an exact science of using marketing and design to lure customers. By censoring the branding of well known fast-food outlets, the artists de-mystify the design strategies and reveal the underlying formalist logic that such businesses adhere to.

All exhibitions are currently offsite due to disruptions caused by the Pakuranga Eastern Busway construction. The building remains open for classes and other activities. 21 William Roberts Road, Pakuranga, is the best address to enter into navigation apps to guide you to the free parking at our door.
