David Matches The Match |
| 20 Dec 2011 - 16 January 2012 |
| The Match – a photographic exhibition by David Matches.
This exhibition is toured by NZ Portrait Gallery – Wellington and consists of 100 life-size images taken over a 5 year period, of rugby players immediately after they have finished a game and escaped to the changing rooms to scour off the layers of mud, blood and dirt.
The expressions are those of players who have had the elation of winning or dealing with losses.
David Matches travelled throughout New Zealand capturing these players up against the changing room walls with a white backdrop.
There are several nationally noted players including Dan Carter and also a few locals among them.
The gallery walls will be entirely covered with these images and will create an awesome impact on viewers.

Members of the Embroiderers' Guild will be on hand on weekends during the exhibition to explain the details of their creations.

Recollection – multi media decoupage by Joan & Dick Wills.
The exhibition will include decoupage boxes of varying sizes, decorated pre 1914 shoe lasts, iconic triptychs with Byzantine themes and some acrylic paintings an extension of our work, some as decoupage and acrylic background.
Over the years we have exhibited occasionally since 1997, developing a unique type of art with an emphasis on finish, particularly our boxes.. Joan’s expertise has produced some of our best work through an accumulated knowledge of adhesives, shellacs and varnishes.
With a surgeon like approach of a scalpel, she has compiled an amazing library of ready material over the years for our projects.
Some items taking months to complete have found their way into homes throughout NZ and overseas at times passing on to other family members as heirlooms.
We are forever searching out new ideas and methods and with a liking for strong colours have moved towards acrylics and oil pastels inspired by the great artists of old.
