Artist Kushana Bush discusses the 'miniature' gouache paintings that make up her exhibition The Burning Hours with Dunedin Public Art Gallery curator Lauren Gutsell.
In Kushana Bush’s meticulously detailed, stage-like world, religious themes blend with secular narratives, often manifesting in ritualistic violence. Her grand narrative constructions examine what spirituality, ritual and community might mean in a contemporary world.
