12 August - 5 September 2009

Inge Doesburg's new exhibition of work, Sanctuary, explores themes inspired by the landscape and in particular Kapiti Island.

The Dunedin based artist visited Kapiti in 2006 and was heartened to see what bird protection has achieved on the island sanctuary. She has produced an impressive body of work inspired by this trip, including a number of one off works on paper.

Doesburg is frequently drawn to remote, weather beaten locations and these new works evoke the drama of being on the island as wild weather descends. Many of the artist's pieces include an ethereal light or a symbol in gold leaf which is a recurring motif - used by Doesburg to signify eternity, hope and flight. Other large-scale multi media works feature Doesburg's signature expressive mark making and are shaped in a half circular dome representing protection.

Inge Doesburg has exhibited widely in solo and group shows since 1991, in New Zealand as well as Japan, Australia and Germany.
