Ponsonby - A new pop-up gallery is set to open in the heart of Auckland showcasing the works of three talented artists from three distinct cultures.
This exciting event celebrates the diversity of the local community and is part of the Auckland Festival of Photography.
The gallery will feature the work of Steph Nierstenhoefer (OOAK), Dina Nicolaides (Konstant Imagery) and Roberta Queiroga each of whom brings a unique perspective to their art.
Steph is a German multi-disciplinary artist and photographer who draws inspiration from her own street photography and converts her original images into illustrations. Dina is an Australian-Greek photographer who explores the beauty of the natural world through her work.
Roberta is a Brazilian visual artist who works in a symbiosis with the canvas allowing for her emotion to spontaneously flow with minimum interference when creating.
Coming together in New Zealand, these three artists represent an exciting array of contemporary art from around the world. Their works will be displayed in a dynamic and engaging environment that encourages visitors to interact with the art and explore the different perspectives on offer.
"We are thrilled to be showcasing our work in this pop-up gallery as MERGE. Each one of us brings a unique vision to our art, and we are excited to see how our works will interact with each other and with our visitors.”
The pop-up gallery will be open for one week starting from 5 June to 11 June and will be located at Shop 4, Ponsonby Central, 136 Ponsonby Road. Admission is free, and visitors will have the opportunity to meet the artists at the Vernissage on Friday 9 June from 6pm.
Our arts are merged together to express our different cultures. Kua hanumi a mātou toi, ki te whakaputa te rereke i o mātou ahurea.
