OPENING TODAY: LISA WAUP’S ‘AFTER EVER HERE’ AT ARARAT GALLERY TAMA

after ever here is an exhibition by Lisa Waup that brings together printed works, utilitarian vessels, sculptures, and body adornment, each imbued with layered stories of material history. The exhibition centres on textiles both found and gifted, whose fibres already carry histories and memory. Through her practice, Waup extends these narratives, reanimating objects once set aside and granting them renewed life and altered intention.

By observing and honouring the histories embedded in these materials, Waup reveals their intimacy and beauty, transforming them into works that adapt and evolve. In after ever here, Waup traces the enduring significance of materiality across time, while inscribing her own voice threaded into their continuing story.

after ever here is guest curated by Coby Ann Edgar.
