This series of new painted works are created by smearing, pouring, stomping,
hammering and screwing. Exploring the all over surface and sense of physical
impact associated with the Abstract Expressionist painters, while injecting
some material normally unfamiliar to the picture plain.

Gaby Montejo approaches art through photo, sound, interviews, and
temporary installation often with performative actions.  The work often
explores democracy and hierarchy in a way where the finished work is
consumed or destroyed during the process of making. Whilst exhibiting
internationally, Gaby stays pivotal in the social initiatives and collaborative
interventions of Christchurch. Born to Cuban parents, Gaby attended art
schools in Australia and America and moved to Ōtautahi/Christchurch in
2006.

A vulnerable venture for a colour-blind person learning to trust the eye when it
comes to flat images; after a 25 year practise involving experiential sculpture
and extended media.
This current series reflects on awkward life events and side-hustles.
There are undercurrents of human magnetism here, within the language of
collage… an act of theft, butchery, and rebirth.

Fake power refers to a sense of control or influence that is not based on
actual authority or capability. It is a facade or illusion of power that individuals
or groups may use to manipulate or deceive others. This can include
asserting authority that one does not actually possess, using intimidation or
coercion to assert control, or creating a perception of power through
deception or manipulation. Fake power is often temporary and can be easily
undermined or exposed when challenged or confronted.
Responses to disinformation can vary depending on the context and
objectives.
It is important to note that tackling disinformation requires a multi-faceted and
collaborative approach involving various stakeholders, as there is no one-
size-fits-all solution.
Sculptures of everyday objects are a form of art that takes commonplace
items and transforms them into unique and thought-provoking sculptures.
Artists who create these sculptures often challenge the traditional notions of
what can be considered art and elevate the mundane into something
extraordinary.
These artists and their sculptures of everyday objects invite viewers to
reconsider the familiar and find beauty in the seemingly ordinary. Through
their art, they challenge our perceptions, provoke thought, and create
engaging experiences that inspire contemplation and dialogue.
Porcelain is a type of ceramic material known for its white and translucent
appearance. It is often used in the production of fine china, tableware,
decorative objects, and sculptures. Here is some information about porcelain:
It is essential to note that the term “porcelain ” can sometimes be used more
broadly to describe any type of ceramic material. However, in its traditional
and technical sense, porcelain refers specifically to this particular type of
ceramic with its unique characteristics and manufacturing processes.
Porcelain is not commonly used in modern electronic devices. It is primarily
known for its use in ceramics, particularly in the production of fine china,
decorative objects, and insulators. However, there have been limited
applications of porcelain in certain niche areas within electronics.
It’s important to note that these applications are not widespread and are
typically limited to specific industrial or specialized electronic contexts.

In modern electronic devices, other materials such as various polymers,
ceramics (such as alumina), and metals are more commonly used due to their
specific electrical and mechanical properties.
