Dali Susanto Art Exhibition

Dali produces bold paintings and designs, usually using acrylics and often resembling prints. He continues to expand on his creativity and has begun painting on different media as well as canvas. Since moving to New Zealand in 2007 he has developed a distinctive style using motifs and patterns with a bold graphic style and use of colour. Themes in his work are often based on love and relationships. Dali also enjoys painting murals.
He has held several exhibitions at galleries in Hastings and Napier and has exhibited in Auckland and in the Taupo Museum.
Born in the art capital of Indonesia, Jogjakarta, Dali Susanto was brought up surrounded by artists, both within and outside of his family circle. Dali’s Mother and Father (and other family members) own batik galleries and teach local and international tourists and students the skills in batik work. He was named by his parents after Salvador Dali in hope that he would follow along the same footsteps and become an artist.

On display in The Pot House Gallery from 19th February to the 4th of March.
Open 10am-3.00 pm weekdays and 10am-2 pm weekends
