Opening Next Month: Rural Stitches
From September 2, Feilding Art Centre will proudly host the unique works of Tammie Rose Hodgetts in her latest exhibition: Rural Stitches.
An exhibition built around opulent scenes of the Rangitikei, Tammie has taken inspiration from cubism painting and used vivid colours to create landscape works that have a jewel-like quality to them. The faceted effect of her cubist style creates works which appear to have been stitched together. You must see these unique pieces for yourself but... be fast as Tammie's exhibition is only on until September 21!

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?
