Art makes Chinese New Year celebrations come alive in Wellington

Part of ‘Double Dragon’ by Kerry Ann Lee, 2012. New works inspired by Chinese New Year are set to bring unique expressions of Chinese culture to Courtenay Place. Ho Sun Nian, curated by Linda Lim, runs from February 1 to May 23 at the capital’s light boxes at Courtenay Place Park in the central city. The exhibition is inspired by Chinese New Year celebrations and features work by Wellington-based Chinese artists Stan Chan and Kerry Ann Lee. As New Year is the most important date in the Chinese calendar, the exhibition’s title Ho Sun Nian refers to the Cantonese phrase “celebrating New Year” and references the language of the Chinese community who first settled in Wellington.
