Opening in the Main Gallery
Saturday 17 August 3 – 4.30pm
Elke Finkenauer explores the language of drawing in the expanded field. She is particularly interested in line, gesture, surface and process, and often works in soft materials. Her works for this exhibition are inspired by ideas of mapping as a way of understanding our experience and finding a place for ourselves in the world.
Sean McDonnell’s works are based on the common themes of life, death, and the frailty of life, conveyed through forms and motifs such as hearts, skulls, clouds and flowers. His works are visual questions to himself and by making his thoughts visual he hopes to navigate his way toward a place of understanding.
Through their practices each artist attempts to understand their place in the world. They reflect on aspects of human nature and ponder impossible questions such as what it means to be human. Their works are sites of contemplation – they are attempts at understanding, whilst also being acknowledgements that understanding is a state of constant flux.
First Post of 2013
The first exhibition is at A Fine Line Gallery in Matakana (next to Charlie's Gelato Garden on Sharp Road about half way between Warkworth and the Matakana Village).
The opening is on Friday 8 February, from 5:30pm to 8pm. I'd love to see you there if you can make it and feel free to bring friends and family and anyone else who is interested. If you can't make it to the opening the exhibition is open daily from 9am - 5pm from 9 February to 3 March.
