High Tides: Yuki Kihara and Morgan Hogg

High Tides: Yuki Kihara and Morgan Hogg is a shared exhibition centering the importance of ancestral knowledge sharing and resilience in the face of the current climate catastrophe. Working in the context of the front lines of rising sea levels and the increasing frequency and ferocity of severe weather events, High Tides brings together new and existing works from renowned Japanese and Sāmoan interdisciplinary artist Yuki Kihara and critical emerging Cook Island Māori (Ngāti Tāne) and Tahitian artist and creative producer Morgan Hogg.

Auxiliary to this exhibition is a series of community-based programs expanding upon ideas of conversation and intergenerational cultural knowledge exchange, convened by Western Sydney-based Sāmoan creative producer Gabriel Faatau'uu-Satiu. 

Held on Gadigal land on the dredged shores of Warrane (Sydney Cove, Gadigal), High Tides acts as a site for collective healing and discourse facilitated by two important artists of Te Moana-nui-a-kiwa (Pacific Ocean, Māori) diaspora.

Programming by Gabriel Faatau'uu-Satiu for High Tides is supported by Create NSW through Next Steps - Professional Development grant.
