Artworks in Homes

Sarah & Tom, Wellington, NZ

"I saw the work just a few days before and was immediately drawn to it. I sometimes find that I cannot articulate what it is about a piece of art which connects with me but I think it is important that it moves you in some way as it is likely to be living with you for some time...."

"I have a small box in the drawer beside my bed with special keepsakes/notes/photos which I have received over the years. It includes a card with a print-out of 'Erica van Zon's 30 Nov - 22 Dec 2018' works for sale with a hand-drawn circle beside number two, Cuningham House, 2018. This was a Christmas present from my husband purchased the day the exhibition closed and we went away for Christmas! I saw the work just a few days before and was immediately drawn to it. I sometimes find that I cannot articulate what it is about a piece of art which connects with me but I think it is important that it moves you in some way as it is likely to be living with you for some time. I loved this small window into a wild paradise depicted in intricate detail."
