"Monique Jansen, Esther Leigh and Sara Hughes"

Bartley Nees Project
Wellington, ,
NZ New Zealand (Aotearoa)
Bartley Nees Gallery brind us this exhibition of recent work by three women abstract artists. Bright, refreshing
and lively, the exhibition reveals the on-going vitality of abstraction in
contemporary art practice. All three artists share an interest in the
tension and intersection between the hand-made and the mechanically made.
Their paintings, which show a delight in process, explore the effect, affect
and impact of repetitive patterns. Entering the territory of op art and even
pop art they are at once ethereal and sensual, transparent and dense,
serious and light-hearted.
Sara Hughes is a young artist who is currently working in Duendin as the
holder of the Frances Hogkins Fellowship. Her work has just been seen in
Wellington in the Dirty Pixels exhibition at the Adam Art Gallery.
