KIRSTY BLACK | NZ CONTEMPORARY ABSTRACT ARTIST
Hi, I’m Kirsty, a NZ contemporary abstract artist, painting from my studio in Maraetai, Auckland.
My original artworks can be found for sale in galleries around New Zealand as well as from my studio. Enquiries are most welcome, and I am more than happy for visitors to the studio by appointment.
A COLORFUL WORLD OF INVENTED NARRATIVE & ORIGINAL PAINTINGS
For me storytelling is a family tradition; it brings you together, creates a sense of belonging and is often entertaining. As an abstract painter, for me this is an extension of this tradition, a medium where imagination has free rein, where the work prompts the viewer to continue the story or come up with their own.
I’m delighted to be a finalist in this year’s Parkin Prize 2020 and am looking forward to the Gala Opening at the Academy Galleries. Exhibition runs from 4 to 30 August, Wellington.
If you are in town, come along!
