A Quiet Moment- A painting exhibition by Stephanie Postles
5 - 27 May 2022

Gallery hours: Mon - Fri 9.30am -4.30pm, Sat 9.30am - 2.30pm

This show comprises of a selection of works from the past two years. More recent works, including ‘I Have A Vision’ and ‘Two Options’ reveal Stephanie Postle’s compulsion to capture and record spaces, people and places as a tool by which to remember. They encourage the viewer to see what the artist does; namely, the beauty in the banal and the intimacy that is found only in quiet moments. Poignant earlier works such as ‘Courage’ and ‘My Black Dog (Cow)’ capture individuals in the midst of emotional isolation or hardship, encouraging the viewer to contemplate the solidarity of shared human experience and perhaps find comfort in them.

Free entry. All welcome.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
