Damdadi Da invites you to inhabit the worlds of Korean artists—some who stayed in Korea, others who moved to Auckland in the late 1990s and 2000s. More than an exhibition, it’s a chance to experience how art shapes attention, movement, and presence.

Unanchored Light reflects a life lived between places, where movement, memory, and the sky become a shared language. Suns, moons, and stars serve as symbols that are both universal and culturally distinct. These works explore how identity can drift, adapt, and take new forms. Light here is not fixed but shifting, carrying warmth, distance, and the quiet resonance of belonging in more than one world.
