Press Release

There is no middle ground, and there never was. Robbie Fraser’s (Ngāti Porou ki Hauraki) The Centre Always Drifts to the Right explores the fluid nature of “the centre,” engaging with the political through geometric abstraction. Oscillating between humour and deadpan observation, Fraser’s paintings seem to vibrate with tension. In an era of 24-hour news cycles, technocracy, and accelerationism, he translates this world into geometric angles, optical illusions, and stark, deliberate divisions.
