Our New Zealand
Our New Zealand, the title of this exhibition resonates deeply, even more-so than during initial discussions with invited artists over two years ago. Through the lens of recent events, the benefits and blessings of being one with Our New Zealand have never been greater or more appreciated.
Leading artists, united by talent and a passion for their subject, salute the diversity, beauty and spirit of Our New Zealand. In life, as in art syncronicity plays a part, creativity has been the silver-lining of isolation. This is an exhibition celebrating life in Our New Zealand.
