Painting dreams with Christian Dimick

Explore a spontaneous and unconventional approach to painting in this workshop led by artist Christian Dimick.

All materials provided. Suitable for all ages. Registrations open 19 October, spaces are limited so get in quick!

Christian Dimick is an artist based in Tāmaki Makaurau, primarily working in the field of painting and drawing to explore ideas of memory, intimacy and sentimentality. Through their work in the studio, Dimick forms a distorted visual biography that exhausts the mediums of paint and canvas through reiterative processes of mark-making. Dimick’s “works are the result of a practice that is reflexive, reactive and adaptive, rather than authoritative or directorial. They invite the viewer to consider painting as a process or negotiation, something open-ended and ongoing…” – Andrew Clark⁠
