Roger Mortimer
South Poetic Party 26 February - 30 March 2013 26 February 2013 - 30 March 2013 In this exhibition, Roger Mortimer continues his distinctive investigation of maps and cartographic conventions. As with all maps, his paintings are a means of communicating information about place. But here the information is subjectively and somewhat surrealistically selected. Imagery derived from history, mythology, classical painting traditions, flora and fauna, contemporary life and even the artist's own interior dreamscapes, collides with more conventional map drawings. The result is resonant, new narratives of place that speak equally to geography, history and fantasy. Mortimer's title South Poetic Party suggests both the poetic way his work operates and the current direction of the gaze of the Auckland based artist - many of the works engage with maps of the Wellington region.
