Description
Auction Lot Details
This large piece features the historic and iconic Te Mata Woolshed floating amongst sea of green. It is the latest in a series of local woolsheds to emerge from Josh’s easel. In typical Lancaster style the familiar rural architecture becomes heroic, a giant steel beast emerging from lush vines. Behind it the view rolls out towards Napier and the ocean beyond.
“I love an old wool shed – they were always magical places to visitas a kid… signposted to the senses by warm wafts of lanolin mingling merrily with honk of sheep poo.”
Josh believes in the stories that places can tell. The scenes painted become an access point for memories that bring with them the comfort of a familiar face.
