Steve paints landscapes from his own west Auckland environment; from bush and coast to rural and open country. He’s less interested in simply recording what a place looks like, than in capturing the spirit of place and something of what it feels like to be there, so that his paintings are not static decorations, but paintings that are alive and renewing.

"The Evocation of Worlds" by Ruth Ige, an exhibition at Te Uru, gathers together a new body of work that extends the artist's ongoing exploration of Blackness, African diaspora, speculative imagination, and ancestral presence. Across a serious of paintings, figures emerge and dissolve through fields of indigo, violet, shadow, and light – never fully fixed, never entirely knowable.
