Art Gallery
New Zealand icons like corrugated iron, shepherds' dog whistles, black
singlets along with domestic items from the kitchen and garage are
worked into snappy, staunch and savvy pieces about kiwi society |

Sculpture
Gallery
Created from materials such as bone, metal, wood, wool, fabric and
found objects like dolls, hammers and marbles, these works vary in
size and style to best suit my concepts. |

After
a research break and preparing for a summer of new exhibitions,
I have a selection of work at the Lounge
Shack in the 1911 Australasian Bank Building in Mangonui,
Northland. This is a shared space in the Number 19 site
on the Mangonui
Historic Trail along with Audrey Mitchell who is selling
a selection of deli products and collectables. Opening
hours will be most weekends and Northland time on other
days. There are new works along with a few old favourites.

Tuiana
Pure
"Tuiana" - my parody on Kiwiana. Tuiana
is my passion; observing and toying with New Zealand's iconography.
I
wonder who it is that defines our culture, what our gender
and associated roles should be?
The majority of my present work is based on one of two themes:
• Black Singlet
• New Zealand Landscape
