Erik Lopeti

“My name is Erik Lopeti. A Samoan creative, born and raised in Aotearoa, New Zealand. A visual artist and music producer. My work reflects my deep relationships, places, and the environments that shape me. I spent a number of years living in Phnom Penh. Khmer people – their history, and hopes for the future – hold a very special place in my heart. My creative practice draws on these experiences, blending my Pacific heritage with a wide range of influences.” For more info, please visit his Instagram.

Title: 01 / Hope (2025)
Description: Hope: catches us, a strong hand in the dark. It allows space for sorrow while it whispers the promise of change.

Title: 02 / Mercy (2025)
Description: Mercy: doesn't erase the fall, it shields us against ruin. Like a hand holding back the unendurable.
