A CLEAR DAY
Karl Maughan
Known for his rich garden paintings, this solo exhibition focuses on Karl Maughan’s early practice.
Drawn from both public and private collections, the works in this exhibition reveal early explorations of the motifs and techniques that have become central to his practice, including his distinctive approach to colour, composition, and spatial strategy. Together, they offer a compelling glimpse into the development of one of Aotearoa’s most recognised painters.
