Handcrafted Mosaic Stained Glass Art - Vino Martyn
I started working with glass in 2010 as a hobby wanting to express my inspirations, thoughts, experiences and the world around me in the form of mosaic stained glass art. I have a story behind every piece of work I have produced. Each piece of glass is cut and shaped to size by hand and placed to form a unique picture that relates my thoughts.

This is a collection of student art and artists from Wellington. Through Nostalgia Markets, we've been holding vintage and craft markets with Thistle Hall over the past year and wanted to find a way to highlight all of the incredible artists, designers and creatives that we see coming through as vendors.
The exhibition features 9 artists, ranging in photography, illustration, painting, and sculpture. There's truly something for everyone.
Hamish Thompson’s photographic series, Behind the Counter: Wellington Shopkeepers, celebrates the personalities of 30 local shopkeepers and their shops, illustrating how they contribute to the unique character of Wellington.
Some shops have been family-run businesses since the 1920s. They include book stores, barber shops and florists, as well as stores specialising in fabrics, hats and ice cream.
No Rhyme No Reason is an amalgamation of three friends who share a similar passion for painting.
Delve into whimsical realms inspired by a cocktail of cartoons and comics, where childhood nostalgia intertwines with a modern application and wink and nod to the absurd. Explore the intricate beauty of Japanese motifs meticulously hand-painted, each piece a testament to tradition and craftmanship which whisper ancient tales from their sturdy confines.

The remote Wairarapa beaches of my childhood offered thrilling signs of other worlds – a dead fish, a painted plank. Today, the plastic flotsam on my local Lyall Bay beach feels more like a warning.
