Another year, another Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki annual ball! This year the ball was wrapped around the current exhibition, ‘Olafur Eliasson: your curious journey’ which is an experimental collection with several nods to the environment and four elements. We designed an event that spoke to our creative and curious nature as humans, with various activations there to excite and delight the senses, leading to the creation of the Curious Ball.
We took our guests on a journey from entrance right through to the exhibition doors. Guests walked into an underwater world with all things blue and ocean-led, then into ‘middle earth’ which was a warm, firey atmosphere, and up to the nature bath which was set up like a native NZ garden. The story was told through strong use of AV production, dressing, event design, curious canapés and creative cocktails. To further add to the night, we had pop-up performances from Te Ohorere Williams, Atamira Dance & Ctenophora Co with NZDJ Collective spinning tunes all night.
