Simon Williams - Patterns of the Land

From the Mount Eden studio of leading New Zealand artist Simon Williams comes a collection of over twenty five dazzling new paintings. Created over four years, inspired by plein air journeys throughout the North and South Islands, Patterns of the Land is the most major exhibition in the thirty year career of this Dunedin born impressionist. An exhibition of artistic exploration and unbounded achievement.

Through the brushstrokes of a master artist we look and feel the repeating Patterns of the Land, our land, New Zealand. These paintings are special, they are modern day heirlooms. Williams captures and immortalises nature's diverse endowment of the country of his birth and in doing so, unwittingly reminds us of the privileges afforded by the unspoilt beauty that is New Zealand.
