New Screenprints by Reuben Paterson

Gow Langsford Gallery is pleased to announce the release of a new series of limited edition screenprints by contemporary artist Reuben Paterson (Ngāti Rangitihi and Ngāi Tūhoe). The works interlace kōwhaiwhai of the mangōpare hammerhead shark and the mangōtipi white pointer shark. Woven together as genealogical markers, the two kōwhaiwhai act as invocation and whakapapa to Tangaroa, god of the sea.
