Location and lifestyle changes have bought these artworks together as I relocate my focus from the city to our new home in Taranaki.
Back to the region of land and sea, has opened doors into rooms of new ideas and old techniques.
A sense of homecoming like the native birds that surround the areas I paint. They are like street signs that subconsciously name the location.
Like an old song.

Past Exhibitions
SCATTERLINGS – Sandy de Kock
April 2024
I love the scatterlings of Africa
Each and every one
In their hearts a burning hunger
Beneath the copper sun

On a journey to the stars
Far below, we leave forever
Dreams of what we were.
Lyrics by Johnny Clegg and Savuka

My beautiful Armenia – Hayastan – Leigh Anderton-Hall
December 2023
In the vibrant tapestry of Hayastan, Graham and I immersed ourselves in a two-week exploration during September 2023, centered around the Yerevan Print Biennale in Armenia’s capital city, Yerevan.
My ceramic sculptures, born from this immersive experience, are a testament to the shapes and patterns imprinted on my consciousness by the temples, churches, subways, manholes, and gates of Yerevan. The clay becomes a canvas for exploring the intersection of people, war, and land – themes that, although geographically distant, are intimately connected to the heart of Armenia.
Language – Ivan Vostinar

Ceramic sculpture based on the human form.
Shutterbug – John Girdlestone
