Sophie Gardiner creates bold artworks inspired by music, media, and society. Practicing, studying extensively and teaching art has led her to settle from the UK to Wellington, New Zealand. Gardiner uses many different mediums to bring together the worlds of abstraction, street art, textiles, poetry, music, vintage fairy tale illustration, mythology and a love of living things. The prime focus of her work is centred around finding our place, our connections with Mother Nature and to each other.
