Introducing Neil Adcock
Neil Adcock graduated from the Wellington School of Design in 1979. He exhibited some of his early works in the National Art Gallery in Wellington and spent many years as a creative director in advertising. Four years ago he bought some jewellery making tools, set up a workshop and with a little help from YouTube, taught himself all the skills he needed to make his unique style of jewellery. He quickly gained a dedicated fan base, Lisa Reihana wore a selection of his works as the artist representing New Zealand at the 57th International Art Exhibition - La Biennale di Venezia, and Lorde has a piece in her collection.
Fingers is very excited to now introduce Neil to our own audience.

'Metalworks'

2016 Annual Group Show
Chromatic Metal by Joanna Campbell
"The idea with this work was simply to explore the absorbable quality of the anodised aluminium. And look at the process of dying or painting with dye, and have fun with colour, I have bead blasted the surface of the aluminium in order to make the surface area more porous like velvet so it really soaks up the colour"
2016 Graduating Students Award
Nik Hanton, Whitireia Polytechnic
Kylie Sinkovich, Hungry Creek Art & Craft School
Kim Whalen, Manukau School of Visual Arts
Paora Toi-Te-Rangiuaia
"Te Wharengakau o Tangaroa: The Sacred Heart of Tangaroa" $1,800
Whales tooth, Sharks teeth, Gold lipped Mother of Pearl, Black lipped Mother of Pearl and Silk.
Wharengakau is a term used for a house specifically constructed to resolve matters of violation. The use of shark teeth as a halo replaces Christ's crown of thorns to signify the sacredness of the dominion of Tangaroa as guardian of life upon and within the Pacific Ocean.
