Kirsty Black Studio - Artist Profile
My aim as an artist is to engage viewers and create a sense of escapade, romping across the canvas with joyful abandon. Using a mix of intuition, spontaneity, and considered mark-making, I let the imagination run free. Storytelling through art forms a common bond, offering cathartic, uplifting, and entertaining experiences. I invite viewers into a narrative landscape where they can explore, connect, and find their own stories within the artwork.
Born in the UK, I grew up travelling extensively and living in various countries. My experiences, curiosity, and vivid imagination inspire my work, along with a lifelong love of abstract art. My studies at Otago University deepened my appreciation for early 20th-century European and Russian art movements, influencing my vision of abstract art.
A finalist in multiple notable art awards, I paint from my studio on the coast in Maraetai, Auckland, New Zealand.
