Art Not Science, Episode 62: A rebroadcast of a conversation between Rhea Maheshwari, Kahurangiariki Smith and Charlotte Huddleston.( 0:36:30)       
Episode Information
This episode of Art Not Science is a rebroadcast of one of our earliest episodes; Art Not Science Episode 4 this evening becomes episode 62. Artists Rhea Maheshwari and Kahurangiariki Smith discuss their exhibition Two Oceans at Once with Charlotte Huddleston, reorienting historical time in order to critique colonial legacies. The force of the ocean as both metaphor and articulation of home remains present in Kahurangiariki’s practice. One of the artists commissioned to develop a new moving image for our current exhibition Homing Instinct, Kahurangiariki’s work Mā te Moana was formed during time in Rarotonga, swimming near to where many ancestral waka departed for Aotearoa. Tracking travel between Rarotonga and Cambodia, Mā te Moana responds to the push and pull of the ocean, and ongoing indigenous mobility through the moana.
