Richard Penn - Artist

Richard Penn is a South African artist living and working in Auckland, Aotearoa. His work examines the intersection of scientific and artistic vision, using scale and detail as metaphoric devices to reflect on our invested positions as viewers. He  works across various media, including painting, drawing, sculpture and animation, exploring the relationship between visual and conceptual abstraction. More recently Richard has worked exclusively with clay and ceramics and in 2022 he was the recipient of The Premier NZ Portage Ceramic Award In this episode we discuss his upcoming exhibition in May at Public Record and a fascinating collaborative exhibition he is curating at Depot Artspace in October, his journey from SA to NZ and how he has found his community here, And we meet the glorious Artu Peatoo, a collaborative persona between Richard and his wife Robyn Penn, who is also an artist.http://richardpennart.com/ Support the showNgā mihi, thanks for listening!
