Wildfire

  • Read more about Wildfire

Wildfire: a series of paintings by Wellington artist Rachel Radford.

Initially inspired by the gorgeous sunsets that were caused by the Australian wildfires, Rachel has continued to be inspired by skycapes that result from wildfires that have surfaced in the media.

Tapping into themes of climate change and the human impact on the world, Rachel has found the beauty in some of these heavy themes, and highlights how we can continue to remember and face these events even when they no longer appear in our feeds.

Abstract Wellington

  • Read more about Abstract Wellington

Emilys solo exhibition of abstract collages is inspired by Wellington land and cityscapes. Depictions of inner city scenery, distant hills, and natural environments are interpreted within a minimal palette creating familiar vistas for the viewer to discover. Emily uses repetitive patterns and shapes to create uniformity in her works; blending monochromatic collage with mixed media such as ink and thread to create textural  layered works.

Following on from her sold out show in October 2021, Peeps at Nature, Emily is again exhibiting her gorgeous, funny collages in What’s wrong with this picture?


Emily will be showing a wide range of collage sizes, including cards and framed and unframed pieces.


10 percent of the sales will go towards Cyclone Gabrielle flood relief. Emily is looking forward to having an opening night this time around as Covid restrictions meant she was unable to have one for Peeps at Nature.

Contemplation

  • Read more about Contemplation

I have been captivated by the beauty of New Zealand for the past seven years, and I am delighted to share my work today. I wish it was  an invitation to experience the poetry of the Living.


Each image is the result of a deep and introspective conversation, much like the ones you might have with a tree if you take the time to listen, or with a river if you allow yourself to be immersed in its flow. I have an unwavering tenderness for all living things and strive to capture their essence.

Colour plays a big part in my life. I love using a lot of paint in my work and clearly have my favourite colours. Influenced by nature , my paintings are created from my feelings and thoughts towards the ocean and the birds. Lines and layering are also important to me.

People Watching

  • Read more about People Watching

“Capturing people in their places is one of the most beautiful and fascinating things I've ever achieved. I love stepping back from a painting and recognising their expression, the specific way their hair falls, the creases by their eyes, and the way their cheeks blush when they smile. I love imperfections painted perfectly because these are what make us human.”
