Objectspace Limited Editions provides an opportunity for discerning collectors to purchase exclusive new designs by leading New Zealand makers working within a number of making traditions in Aotearoa New Zealand. It is an ongoing initiative that works as a professional development opportunity for object makers and as a fundraiser for Objectspace. In 2008 makers were invited to submit designs for works that would be future heirlooms. Works are on display 10 October to 8 November 2008 and viewable by appointment thereafter:

Richard Stratton is a Wellington based ceramics maker who graduated in 1993 from the Otago School of Art with Honours in Ceramics. He has exhibited widely in New Zealand and is the winner of a number of awards. His work is held in numerous leading public and private collections including that of Te Papa Tongarewa.
