Hypnic Jerk at PAULNACHE 2015

My second solo exhibition with PAULNACHE cemented our relationship as close collaborators in developing exciting and unexpected shows for our audience. The gallery certainly surprised me, exceeding my expectations of a gallery based outside the main centres. Gisborne may be isolated from Auckland, but Auckland is isolated from Sydney, New York and London – location matters less than the ability to reach across the divide. PAULNACHE became my sole agent in New Zealand Aotearoa. Photo Thomas Teutenberg.

I wanted a floating feeling with this painting, like seaweed on water or blossom on the wind.
