Art Exhibitions
Other the past 20 or so years - I have exhibited my work in various exhibitions ranging from house exhibitions to art gallery shows. Check out some of my shows here, and don't forget the scrolling technique! |
PROOF [2-18 Dec 2010 @ KiSSS]
The text on the poster says: [ Once / in a room / we stood / and I / asked you / to undress / this photograph / it is/ PROOF ] |
PROOF BY FLEUR WICKES
+ My portraits are proof / the person / I photographed / existed - at that moment in time / as seen / by me. + These portraits / are also / proof / that I / existed too / in/ that / same / moment. Over the last twenty years, my artwork has gradually become evidence of my life: of my thoughts and feelings and desires; of the reality and truth of my subjects; of the people I have met and loved along the way. These images/ printed / on / pieces of paper / and bits of glass / they / are my / precious / and hard-won / PROOF. + |
In the studio entrance...
a whole stack of my proofs, kept over a decade, stapled to the wall. This forms a good cross-section of the commissioned portrait work I have done for my lovely clients. |
THE POSTER SERIES...
I call this series my poster series because the text-photograph combination was inspired by the posters I see all over Wellington, which I love so much. |

FRIDA DAVID LIVES HERE, 2010
22 July - 14 Aug | 10am til 6pm @ KiSSS |
|
FRIDA DAVID LIVES HERE - A PORTRAIT IN 3d
Frida is a woman I would love to be and, at the same time, a woman I can't stand. She drinks too much, has too many parties, takes too many lovers in the hope Mr Goddamn Right will arrive on his hot horse... But she's got a heart as big as Texas and will do anything for the artists she champions - even open up her home for an exhibition... |
This exhibition is an installation of fictional character Frida David's apartment. She is me, and also the me I wish I was. Making this show has opened me up in so many ways, and also has been as scary as hell. Check out the installation shots... |
Don't you wish this was your table...
Frida's dinning room |
Looking down from the lounge.

Beautiful photos in her dining room

Sexy women all up the stairs.

Red bra and lover's tie.

Mirrors from a Japanese sauna.
|
She's got great taste in lamps. |
No greater symbol.

All the artist involved. So many, and so talented! |
