Featured Artist: I recognise that my art practice reflects what’s happening within me, I can observe with curiosity what spills onto the canvas.
Coromind is honoured to have Michael Smither (Companion of the New Zealand Order of Merit) as our featured artist. When our team asked Michael to share some words with our readers, we were stoked with what we received.
In my daily mahi, I am a mataora (change agent) who works particularly with tamariki and rangatahi. We should all encourage whānau who are creative, especially our tamariki and rangatahi. Support their creative flare so they too can fill the world with joy.
The sunlight filters through the window illuminating a glorious bunch of flowers on an old kitchen table. Inside, the basement studio is a hive of activity … heads are bowed over colourful creations as members of this group settle into their mahi.
Kia ora, I’m Shane – raised in Waihi Beach and currently residing in Wānaka. I have been a full time freelance visual artist since 2015.
