New work by Claudia Jowitt in the Gallery Foyer
These new paintings by Claudia Jowitt have been worked on over a period from the pandemic through to her return to the coasts of Savusavu in Fiji, where she has whakapapa to. The repetitive mark-marking, layering, extruding, and embedding techniques create complex reef-like structures. Through her work, Claudia mediates on the possibility of creating works that can speak to a physical sense of place in Moana-Nui-a-Kiwa and her own links to places within it, developing a South Pacific Contemporary abstract painting practice tied to paint's inherent material possibilities.
