KINA Gallery is delighted to present innovative, up-cycled work by Andi Regan. Regan is a multi-media artist based in Wanaka who employs discarded or everyday materials and turns them into beautiful, desirable and decorative objects. Her current work utilises cable ties to create 3 dimensional wall sculptures.

Regan has a background in textile design, which is evident in the way she plays with texture and pattern in her work. Her work transcends the boundaries of conventional textile design, taking on an experimental approach using unconventional materials. Using techniques such as fusing, tying and folding, Regan states that her work seems to always evolve into something symmetrical and decorative: “I have an obsession for circular objects which I balance with a fascination of materials being used in an unconventional way; each material takes on a new form as the work evolves and is ultimately re-created”.

Regan’s most recent work on show at KINA has been inspired by Spirographs: “I was fascinated by them as a child, loving the symmetry and patterns they could make, I recently found an old set from the '70s and have found it to a constant point of reference”.

Spiro: An exhibition with a twist is on show in the KINA gallery until the 13th July 2010.
