Denis Bourke Paintings & Bobbie Gray "Insignifican Other" exhibitions

The Team from Depot Artspace

One more week before Denis Bourke Paintings & Bobbie Gray "Insignifican Other" exhibitions come down on next Wednesday 27 April!

"Denis Bourke Paintings" covers areas of interest that have been at work concurrently over several decades in Denis Bourke’s long-standing practice. Bourke has travelled widely across Aotearoa New Zealand, and is a longtime illustrator and recorder of land features.

Bobbie Gray's "Insignificant Other" brings everyday life into art through magnifying borer ‘galleries’ found in the native timber floors of the artist’s home. The works read as abstract paintings, yet the mark making delves beneath the surface, revealing physical depth. The lines left are evidence of life lived, in parallel with our own.

You can also view the works online at www.depotartspacegallery.com...

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
