A collection of wooden hand-sculpted classical surfboards and water-craft.
All my works have been hand crafted , taking logs in their rough form they are hand milled then carefully shaped to create artistic boards from a beautiful simpler era. The wood in the collection tells its own story with works made from 110 year old reclaimed rimu or a forgotten fallen tree brought back to life. Each piece of work has has a link to our coast line, forest and the pacific.
Something disastrous has happened. The world we have always known, no longer exists. Survivors must come up with ways to navigate through harsh environmental conditions using whatever resources remain...
Walking through Wellington today there are place markers of time everywhere - buildings that were built a century ago, cultural shifts and footprints of those before us. Wellington is a canvas that has been painted by the previous generations. What will our paint strokes look like for our descendants? Through this exhibition I seek to engage people to think deeply on where we have come from, where we are headed, and what we can do to ensure we leave the best possible piece of art for our children to add to.

'This Time With Feeling' is a exploratory exhibition that seeks to engage with the idea of the image as source for empathy. Robbie Motion and Hugo Van Dorsser's practice explores the expressions of personal emotion and the state of mental health in this modern age, asking how these expressions can be represented within an image. The works aim is to capture these emotions and states of being by creating an image without dramatic narrative or context so that the images’ do not impose one specific representation of mental health.

Unlimited! - this exciting exhibition features 50 artworks by 15 very diverse artists. Unlimited! is about the free individual expression and inclusion of artists with disabilities. Adults with disabilities often (still) experience exclusion and marginalisation, formed through other people’s assumptions of what disability means. This exhibition wants to show that disability does not define limitation. There are no limitations – one’s ability to grow and develop is unlimited.
