The Incubator at the Historic Village is hosting an exhibition in March : ‘The Closeness of Trees’. The exhibition features painterly works by Stella Clark and fine art photography by Stephanie Leeves-Annan.
From conversations together where trees and their value were considered , came the commitment to a joint exhibition .
While in the past environment had been part of their art practices , lockdown focused attention on their immediate surroundings embracing its value.
Trees, their beauty, their closeness , their vulnerability in Omokoroa and beyond are all themes being explored in these artworks .
The artists are also planning to create a collaborative work and thinking of ways to extend the exhibition with interactive resources for children.
Come along and enjoy the opening on Saturday !
