100 Plates
6 Dec 2014 - 4 Jan 2015
You don't have to be a potter to take part. Think about the plate in any medium you like, collage, mixed media, crochet, knitted, paper mache, sticks and found objects. Your imagination can just go wild. I will install the plates on the walls and on plinths like a giant installation whereby the individual also becomes integrated in the whole. The visual impact of the 100 plates, removes the concept of the plate as a functional item and elevates it to an artwork.

October 2014 Exhibitions Opening Saturday 4 October, 3.30pm
Carolyn Annand Tui Gallery
A variety of subject matter and techniques is a constant in my artworks. This approach is driven by my desire to explore new media, bringing life to previously undiscovered textures and expressing my love of the creative process. Inspired to further examine the relationship between colour, texture & form, I am taken on a new, untraveled journey each time I paint. This exhibition kicks off a study of human habitation inspired by my English Village Heritage, where I spent my childhood, and the New Zealand suburban and rural landscapes. Celia Man This exhibition is the result of my adoration of unusual media. I love to combine gels, pastes, inks, acrylics, papers, heavy-body paints and stencils to produce works rich in texture. My inspiration is often drawn from random found objects. And my pieces can include almost anything from Bible pages to nuts and bolts. I am constantly captivated by the results attained by altered techniques and happy accidents. I like to think that “Art is not a thing; it is an Expedition. |

Jim White-Parsons Kowhai Gallery
New paintings by Jim whose love of NZ scenes comes alive through the skilled use of watercolour. I try to keep my colour palette simple and also leave plenty of contrast between light and shade. When I select a subject to paint, usually using one of our photo's as reference, I spend quite a lot of time sketching out a satisfactory composition, shifting trees, buildings and mountains, if necessary, to find the best focal point. I also try to leave something for the viewers imagination. 1 - 26 October |

Jewel Lynam Tui Gallery
Jewel's acrylic paintings convey freedom of thought and expression in very articulate visual terms.

This forces the viewer to examine them at varying distances or angles. 4 - 28 September Opening Saturday 6 September, 3.30pm |

Both artists have exhibited internationally and were both selected NZ quilters representing NZ quilt making. 8 July - 3 August 2014 Opening Saturday 12 July 3.30pm |
