An offshoot of the National Emerging Art Prize (NEAP), ACB Selects shows works handpicked by NEAP co-founder and curator, and Director of Emerging Art at Michael Reid gallery, Amber Creswell Bell.

This collection delves into the complexity of memory and self. Memories, often replayed unconsciously, shape our sense of self and reality, blurring truth and interpretation. Drawing on time spent in the New Zealand bush, this series explores nostalgic memories. Each artwork represents a ‘memory’, with distinct images rearranged and abstracted.
