Maker of the Month – Our DEPOT Shop | Toi Toa Maker of the Month for April 2026 is Rose Evans
Rose Evans (Te Atiawa, French and Welsh) works as a Museum Object Conservator and Exhibition Developer. Having spent 15 years at Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa specialising in Māori, Pacific and contemporary sculpture, Rose then worked with the British Museum, Torpedo Bay Navy Museum and Auckland Museum. In 2012 Rose established Objectlab, a heritage consultancy providing both object conservation, museum development and exhibition services to the heritage and wider cultural sector.
To complement her skills with cultural objects, Rose studied jewellry at Hungry Creek, continuing to make at Workshop6 before joining Studio D3 in 2024. She mainly works in silver and has an interest in strong geometric shapes and hollow forms.
Rose is a resident artist in Studio D3, here at DEPOT Toi Toa.

Her practice spans sculpture, ceramics, photography, and botanically inspired publishing, and she has exhibited across a range of art and design contexts in New Zealand and Australia.
Sally has featured at major sculpture venues and public gardens including NZ Sculpture Onshore, the Sydney Botanic Gardens, Auckland Botanic Gardens, the Brick Bay Sculpture Trail, and Connells Bay Sculpture Park. Her Lightbox work Amethyst Sea Garden was a finalist in the 2022 Walker and Hall Awards.
Currently, Sally is exploring ceramic sculptural works, experimenting with the combination of clay and glass. Working from her Devonport home studio, she creates one-off ceramic pieces using a slow, intuitive process. Botanical imagery and symbolic forms drawn from the natural world often inform her work, reflecting a thoughtful and hands-on approach to making.
