Inspiration, reflection, observation. Where does an artist’s work begin? This exhibition explores the work of Paul and Fran Dibble with this thought in mind. Paul’s bronze sculptures, including large scale works, and Fran’s paintings are displayed alongside objects that give us insight into the sources which inform these works.

Paul’s works draw on Māori art, folk art and modernist art history; and references both the European and the Pacific in the settlement of New Zealand. Fran draws on science and natural history, with an interest in New Zealand’s flora. From these disparate sources emerges a collaborative exhibition that talks to the development of a national identity.
