Wellington based acrylic alchemist and non-prophet, a r o n i m u s forges "The Great Work" from a decepit bungalow in Aro Valley.

His muse derives from the interrelation of spiritualism, fringe science, philosophy, both eastern and western, the local landscape and the madness which is contemporary life.

a r o n i m u s fuses these with the natural forms of organic matter into weird and wonderful compositions.

The practise of Qigong is an integral component providing both the focus and peace of mind necessary for the creation of this work.

A graduate of The Learning Connexion in 2004, he has exhibited and sold works through exhibitions and on commission.
