Through Air, Breath and Stone
By Yuka Keino
07.10.2025
Travelling to Japan’s Seto Inland Sea, curator Yuka Keino responds to Aotearoa artist Sarah Hudson’s work Reconciliation. Keino explores the role of stone as a medium of memory, linking the distant islands of Moutohorā, Aotearoa, and Megijima, Japan, through material practices and ancestral knowledge, suggesting a site specificity that is transformed into something translocal, relational and ultimately decolonial.

Aotearoa artist Sarah Hudson (Ngāti Awa, Ngāti Pūkeko, Ngāi Tūhoe) speaks to UK artist Joanne Coates on the occasion of her participation in the Naoshima Art Residency and Setouchi Triennale in Japan, and simultaneous exhibition in Whakatāne, Aotearoa New Zealand. Taking Hudson’s series of works "Reconciliation" as a point of departure, Hudson and Coates discuss how histories embedded in land and community can be explored in different lands, among different communities, and the radical act of protecting space for quietness, calmness and reciprocity.
