Gregor Kregar was born in Slovenia in 1972 and received his BFA from the Academy of Fine Arts, University of Ljubljana, Slovenia before moving to New Zealand and gaining a Master of Fine Arts from Elam Art School, Auckland.
Kregar is known for his diverse sculptural practice, working with materials such as glass, stainless steel, wood, plastic and stoneware and often accompanies his sculptures with light installations, soundtracks, photography and video.
Well practised in the art of re-contextualisation, Gregor Kregar looks to the unassuming garden gnome, a regular inhabitant of suburban popular culture. Removed from his domestic setting, stripped of his primary-coloured palette, Gnome steps out of his typically kitsch personality and into a sophisticated new role as a stylish guardian of everyday life.
