The Friends of the Wellington Botanic Garden have great pleasure in welcoming their integral Artist in Residence, Hannah Schickedanz to the Wellington Botanic Garden ki Paekākā.
Hannah is a fine artist, illustrator and designer who will be resident in the Treehouse between 1 Feb to 1 April 10.00—3pm Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
She says, “I am interested in the meanings humans read into images. My paintings - whether still life or figurative - play with a make-believe mythology. Memories, objects, and stories handed down from parents and grandparents — or handed up from my children — feature alongside woven and collected natural materials foraged during half-remembered summer holidays”.
The sights and smells of nature during summer and autumn always make her creative sap rise. She says “What a treat to be working in the Gardens amongst such a well of inspiration at this time of year!"
Hannah is looking forward to meeting you at the Treehouse. All artwork is for sale with a portion of the sale going towards various Friends projects.
