Gomi (2024)

'Gomi' is the outcome of a residency at Studio Kura the materiality of garbage was explored.

In this show, Rae showcased a collection of flags, kites and quilts, items made during his time as artist in residence at Studio Kura.

Drawing upon the history of boro as a traditional handcraft, 'Gomi' explored the transformative potential of discarded materials and highlights the artistry and cultural resonance of repair and renewal.

'Gomi' tied the domestic to the global through considering creative approaches to the challenges of sustainability, and uses flags, kites and quilts as objects to connect the past with the present.
