WILD GESTURES
HOLLY ZANDBERGEN 
NEW TO THE COLLECTION
We are pleased to introduce Christchurch-based painter Holly Zandbergen to the Black Door Gallery collection.

Zandbergen brings an expressionist approach to the natural world, creating vibrant oil paintings rich in texture, gesture, and emotional resonance.

Her works—often inspired by florals, lush gardens, and the majestic forms of Aoraki / Mount Cook—transform familiar landscapes into evocative, atmospheric scenes.

Using thick impasto and dynamic mark-making, she explores the intuitive connection between inner emotion and external form.
​
Each canvas is a tactile meditation—where colour, movement, and memory converge in a powerful, personal response to place and feeling.

KAYE MCGARVA
UNFOLDING REALITIES
NEW WORKS
New works by award-winning Hawkes Bay artist Kaye McGarva have arrived at the gallery.

Her striking Crease paintings are more than beautiful abstractions—they’re meditations on perception itself. McGarva invites us to consider how we construct reality through sight, how folds in a crumpled sheet can echo the ridgelines of a rugged landscape.

Inspired by thinkers like Aldous Huxley, her work suggests that creases can act as portals into deeper dimensions of experience.

​Come and discover these evocative new pieces—where looking becomes an act of discovery.​

BEN YOUNG
NEW WORKS
​SCULPTURAL GLASS

We are pleased to release new sculptural works by Ben Young.

Known for transforming industrial materials—glass, concrete, steel—into striking representations of the natural world, Young's latest pieces continue to explore the delicate balance between human presence and nature’s enduring power. 

Each work invites viewers to inhabit imagined landscapes, confronting the tension between fragility and permanence.

​In his own words, “Water, a recurring subject for me, with its ceaseless journey, serves as the central subject... It embodies nature's tenacity, always seeking balance.”
