The main works are tape installations and Wilson will continue on the main installation over the rest of the week so you can pop back and see it’s progress – this larger installation is accross one wall and around the corner. The works are all views of the local city scape. There … Continue reading Urban Heaven and Towards the Line

RAW… like a lion

Jo Dalgety

After five months of absorbing art from earlier centuries, it was refreshing and inspiring to check out AUT University’s School of Art + Design RAW Festival 2011. We only took in the Visual Arts portion of the festival over four floors – work from both the Bachelor and Postgraduate Visual Arts programmes. I was excited in particular to see Margaret Estall’s work. I had studied at ArtStation with Margaret over 2 years and at that time she painted exquisite representational work based on the floral head wear of the Cook Islands. The senses play a large part in her latest … Continue reading RAW… like a lion

‘wish you were here’

Jo Dalgety

A mini exhibition in a Pod at the Satellite Gallery for the next month. I will change the two paintings every week. “This is what I am left with when all else has slipped away. It is a memory of a memory, a hook linking me to my childhood on the Hauraki Plains. Glimpses of the Coromandel ranges, the rose garden at the front of my grandmother’s house, a radiogram covered by a bright yellow throw. These snatches of memory are my anchors. I can only speak to that past through my paintings, through these postcards. There are ghosts in … Continue reading ‘wish you were here’
