Moments & Memories - An exhibition by Michelle Neale

Franklin Arts Centre from Franklin Arts Centre

Moments and Memories
An exhibition by Michelle Neale
27 November - 16 December 2024

Moments & Memories’ celebrates and captures those moments and emotions we experience when looking at art. Whether it reminds you of someone, somewhere, or simply makes you feel something; be it joy, love, nostalgia, relaxation, excitement or just peace. Staring at the movement and brush strokes, the viewer is invited to loose themselves in the work and take in whatever is brought to light in that moment and enjoy the experience.

Michelle is passionate about representing or emoting memory through art. Some of the paintings in this series are inspired by wedding bouquets, directly representing the gathered florals in an abstract form with new life and energy.

Opening event: Saturday 30th November 10-12pm
Come and celebrate the opening of ‘Moments & Memories’ with Michelle. Hear directly from the artist about their inspirations and practice.

We look forward to seeing you there.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
