Sara Hughes is included in a new exhibition at the Dunedin Public Art Gallery on until 29 September. In Motion: The Moving Parts of Contemporary Art features work from their collection as well as newly commissioned pieces by Hughes, Tiffany Singh, Rebecca Baumann, David Haines and Joyce Hinterding.
Hughes' commissioned work All My Favourite Shapes is influenced by her two sons aged 5 and 7, along with memories of playing Chinese checkers and draughts on miniature magnetic boards as a child. Talking with the Otago Daily Times, Hughes says ''There is this fantastical element of the work that takes the form of a giant magnetic board with a range of magnet shapes that can be moved on to, over and off its surface.''
