Michelle Reid is a Tāmaki based painter, exploring the idea of atmospheres and gardening through a layered material language that incorporates oil paint, pencil, water colour and even the use of a water blaster. Allowing an index of material vocabulary and mark making to arise. Interweaving these explorative methods of mark making with botanical imagery to create a kind of synthesis of material language, that dances between representation and abstraction. 

Her current exhibition at Artor Contemporary, A Biome of Hue, continues Reid's exploration of atmospheres. Shifting the gallery space into its own garden-like atmosphere that invites viewers to engage with the work in a slightly different way—installed through the lens of a garden, some paintings hung high, others low to the ground, and one even wrapping around the gallery wall. Inviting viewers to encounter the paintings through this alternative embodied lens. 

Maya caught up with Michelle about the show, and overall practice.
