Megan Huffadine graduated with a B.A., Post Graduate Diploma in Anthropology (Otago) and a BFA (Canterbury).
\n\nShe has exhibited in group and solo exhibition throughout New Zealand as well as winning awards for her sculptural work.
\n\n\n\n
There are two main threads to Megan’s work. One involves environmental concerns surrounding human impact on plants and water. The second focuses on the ways identity and history is expressed through the objects individuals and institutions gather and display.
\n\n\n\n
Plants, tools, artefacts and remnants are sketched from memory, drawn and redrawn to create new forms. Colour and rich surface textures are utilised to evoke qualities of bone, bronze and wood. The works are hung as collections of related sculptures or contained within niches in panels.
