Review and Images of Locale Exhibition





This is a review of my work in the exhibition Locale. It was on a site texture.co.nz by a gentleman going by the name of Darren. I am unsure if he has any credibility but it is nice to get some feedback from someone who has no links to me whatsoever. The opening was a success with a great turnout.

"Artist Lynda Garrod’s works tend to be the most thought-provoking and enjoyable on an aesthetic level of all the pieces. Her representations of Foxton (Any town that produces Foxton fizz is all-good in my book) pull something special out of the landscape, capturing the smallness in the big openspaces that dominate the area. The fruit and vege truck and the Foxton racing club become speakers for their history, talking of good times and days of relaxation that have perhaps long gone by, yet are captured through some fine photography, and an eye that respects rather than runs-over and disregards."
