On Now: 2 Artful Dodgers

Thistle Hall is a vibrant community centre in the heart of New Zealand's cultural capital. We provide a community hall, meeting room and Wellington's only community gallery showcasing a range of artists and crafts people, from the established to the emerging.


On Now

23 - 29 JULY 2007

2 ARTFUL DODGERS
Painting and sculpture by John Ritson
Photography by Des Brough
Open daily from 10 am

A two man show of self portrait, autobiography, family, friends and the Island Bay landscape.

John paints universal themes intertwined with mythical figures from the world of Neptune. His carved driftwood sculpture extends these themes. He retains elements of his childhood vision in his fascination with the natural and the supernatural.

Des is a self- taught photographer. Moving from pinhole to digital and everything in between; Des is devoted to old school black and white, pinhole and salt prints. Since buying his beloved Lomo LCA camera he is on a steady downhill slide from darkroom to digital discovery.
