Exhibition opening this week!

The Feilding & District Art Society

Tammie Rose Hodgetts presents her latest body of work in 'Rural Stitches' - on display from September 2 to 21.

These opulent landscapes are all inspired by scenes from the Rangitikei, rendered in Tammie's unique cubist style. The colours and lines Tammie incorporates into her work create a sense that each landscape is stitched together. And yet simultaneously, there is a jewel-like quality in the faceted forms that appear in each painting.

Tammie's artworks certainly offer a unique and intriguing vision of our local landscape, and her exhibition is not one to be missed!

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.

We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
