Born in 2001, abstract artist Tim Hackett started painting at the age of four prompted by the sights and sounds of his father, Peter Hackett’s art studio practice. Gallery Director Ronald Epskamp first noticed a couple of Tim’s abstract paintings when visiting Peter in his studio and asked for the opportunity to exhibit the work before knowing anything about the artist. He was overwhelmed to learn Tim was just ten years old at the time.
Tim has again been supported and encouraged to produce another collection of works of art that he and his family are justifiably proud of. Tim’s interest in all forms of visual arts and enduring interest in creative construction has led to another incredible body of work for his third solo art exhibition at Exhibitions Gallery in Auckland.
