Artist Statement

Flamingos dance into the landscape, disassembling the structure of the hills into mimetic brushstrokes. A painting of a dream image.

About the Artist

Sam Walker

I am from Ōtautahi Christchurch and studied my Bachelors and Masters in Painting in Christchurch at the Ilam School of Fine Arts. I moved to the greater Pōneke Wellington area with my partner in late 2020 upon the completion of my Masters degree. I grew up in Christchurch’s greenbelt, just outside of Halswell. A lot of my artistic sentiments are a mix of semi-rural experience and formative years skirting around a broken city centre. Both the landscape and this ‘brokenness’ is translated into literal subjects in my work.
