Mary Aitken

Based: Hawke’s Bay

 

Mary Aitken originally honed her skills while at Ilam Art School at the University of Canterbury.

 

She paints and draws, but is best known locally for her large-scale wire sculptures which she creates from her home studio in rural Hawke’s Bay. A great example is her work, Horse (pictured) which she presented at the 2008 Wildflower Sculpture Exhibition.
