The Splore Trust is calling for expressions of interest from emerging sculptural and installation artists from Auckland, Manukau, North Shore and Waitakere Cities for the Splore Art Trail. We are looking for artworks that are site and situation aware, setting-up strong relationships (friendly, responsive and interactive) with the natural park environment and strong interactions with visitors to the site.

Splore invites artists from the above mentioned Auckland regions to create installation and sculptural artworks for the park environment, to be experienced as an 'Art Trail'.

Artworks may be static and reflective of their site or artworks may intimately and physically involve the visiting audience in their construction, installation and/or activation. Please email David Thomas (Art Trail Coordinator) to receive the brief and registration form david.dart@paradise.net.nz
