Martin Poppelwell & Max Gimblett Collaboration | Workshop

27.02.15

Long time Workshop Clothing partners MARTIN POPPELWELL and Max Gimblett have collaborated to create a new conversation built on their experience of ceramics and painting.  Both Poppelwell and Gimblett place a high value on the daily practice of drawing and meditation.  Over a period of four days in late 2014 the artists did just this at Poppelwell's studios on Bluff Hill, Napier.  The results are a range of surprisingly direct and humorous works that elaborate on the discussions the artists had while making the artworks and reflect upon aspects of their current thinking about practice, influences and geographies.

Works will be exhibited at Workshop from 13 March 2015 and will coincide with the launch of a new range of limited edition printed garments by Workshop featuring elements from the collaborative artworks.  Workshop is at 74 Mackelvie St, Ponsonby, Auckland

All artworks are available to purchase.
