Artists

Overlap
March 2023

Elizabeth Moyle work examines her concept of held space, an exploration into how
time is held through memories and recordings. Moyle is interested in how the
present runs through, with, and overlaps with the past. Her adept handling of a
variety of media demonstrates not only the artist's innate abilities but a true
sensitivity towards her subject lending her charcoal and painted forms an ephemeral
quality and yet simultaneously, and seemingly impossibly, monumental presence.
Graduating with Distinction in Masters from Wintec in 2021 and First Class Honours
BFA from the University of Canterbury in 2011. Moyle has exhibited both nationally
and internationally and has been the recipient of many awards and scholarships.
