NewFoundZealand
KINA Gallery is proud to present NewFoundZeaLand an exhibition featuring prints by Sam Broad and Jacob Rolfe along with sculpture by Graeme Thompson.
Sam Broad themes include 1950s pulp sci-fi, Maoriana and New Zealand postage stamps. Sam juxtaposes these motifs in a style which the artist describes as future folk vs. colonial tea party. Jacob Rolfe creates images that are fascinating and engaging. His style has been described as pschyedelic-asian-deco.
Also on show are Graeme Thompson’s 'The Aristocrats' series; decorative porcelain figures of 18th century nobility, satirically subverted by Steampunk robotics prostheses and weapons.
NewFoundZeaLand is on show in the KINA gallery until the 3 November 2010.
Hours: Monday to Friday 9am - 5.30pm, Saturday 9.30am - 4pm, Sunday 11am - 4pm
