artist's profile

Kristin Hatland is an exhibiting artist with a BAA. Her motivation and vision in making art, is informed through an understanding that has evolved through the study of logic (cause and effect) concurrently applying a normative ethic. The Blending of the two philosophical theories creates (artistic) tension, blurring idealistic expression. This drives her fascination with abstract art.

The bastille from her plato’s cave series secured a place amongst the finalists and winners that toured New Zealand’s museums and art galleries under the care of Wallace Arts Trust. 

Her artworks are held in private collections in New Zealand and overseas.
