Rebecca is an artist working from her studio in Auckland, New Zealand while juggling the chaos of kids and unruly household pets. She grew up in a very artistic family spending many hours pottering around in her father’s studio.

After attending art school in Auckland she threw herself into the business of being an artist, and continues to live this wonderful, creative life while raising two crazy, amazing children with her partner.

Her work is represented both in New Zealand and Australia with work in private collections throughout the world.

Rebecca’s sculptural paintings are cloaks or cocoons of protection. They enfold and nurture those small, precious moments that we so often overlook as we focus forward rather than being present and observing the beauty that surrounds us.

With these works she presses the pause button and gives the viewer a chance to remember the softly rolling hills with their subtle gradations of greens / blues / darks and lights. To cradle the crusty, pearlised beauty of delicate coral found in a rockpool. To reminisce the way light hits and scatters on the swelling tide as it plunges to meet the sand.

These paintings are her attempt to shine a spotlight on earth’s small treasures and make them the stars of their own stage. This series of work is painted on black roofing membrane.

During Lockdown One last year Rebecca ran out of canvas to paint on and resorted to (borrowing) a roll of her partners roofing membrane from his garage. She discovered to her delight that the tough nature of the membrane allowed her to scroll, fold, drape the work without risk of tearing. From here, her work very quickly took on a life of its own as it evolved its sculptural elements.

These works breathe. Over time they slowly settle into themselves and move with the breeze of someone walking past. They subtly react with the weather and may gently sink and swell with the cold and heat. They take on the essence of a living membrane.

The roofing membrane further instills the idea of something beautiful and precious being created out of the everyday and the mundane.
