Digital Art Live is pleased to present its new interactive exhibition Be Tender by Reuben Paterson.

Be Tender invites audiences to lose themselves into a colourful kaleidoscope created by Reuben Paterson. The kaleidoscope has always required interaction, a dialogue between hand and eye, and of inside and outside, sending shards of coloured glass and fields of light into endlessly fleeting configurations.

This exhibition transforms the kaleidoscope into a new type of technological and physical interaction – where gentle and considerate hand and body gestures dictate the directional movement of Paterson’s glitter painted imagery.

Be Tender is an evolution of an interactive work developed for Gazillion Swirl! Te Mahi Toi o Reuben Paterson, an exhibition in the Todd Foundation Learning Centre, Auckland Art Gallery, September 2011 - September 2012.

Born in Auckland in 1973, Reuben Paterson has received numerous awards and residencies, and exhibits both nationally and internationally. Paterson evolves traditional Maori motif and fabric pattern using non-traditional media that are organic and fluid in nature and adept. His memory cues are drawn from wallpaper, Hawaiian shirts, Dad’s ties and his kuia’s party dresses.
