Denice Symons

BFA - Elam, University of Auckland 1986

As an Auckland based artist Denice has an interest in portraying the Pacific cultural mix in the region in which she lives. Her work is based on her interest in geometric pattern within ethnic societies sparked by time spent in Africa. On her return to NZ, Denice pursued her interest in Maori art via the study of tukutuku panels. She has used this geometric structure in conjunction with mixed media and collage throughout her work. Aspects of the natural environment and landscape are a prominent factor in her work. Colour and surface texture are used to reflect her interest in natural elements.
