SELWYN TIMES<br />
FROM<br />
THE<br />
EDITOR’S<br />
DESK<br />
EARLIER THIS year it was Mi-Sex<br />
and Dragon.<br />
In 2018, Jimmy Barnes will be<br />
making his way to Lincoln for the<br />
second <strong>Selwyn</strong> Sounds rock festival<br />
(see page 7).<br />
This year’s event was a great<br />
success, apart from a few teething<br />
problems which I’m sure will be<br />
ironed out.<br />
The all-day festival will also<br />
feature The Feelers, Mental As<br />
Anything, Stellar, The Mockers,<br />
The Narcs, The Lady Killers and<br />
The Warratahs.<br />
That’s a fairly impressive line-up;<br />
on a par or even better than this<br />
year.<br />
As local lad and festival promoter<br />
David Parlane says: “We<br />
couldn’t do the same as what we<br />
did this year, we had to do something<br />
a little different and make it<br />
bigger and better.”<br />
Sounds good to me.<br />
– Barry Clarke<br />

these shores, this Land<br />
Brent ForBes - In my previous works the landscape has<br />
been used to observe the time of day, the seasons passing, maybe<br />
(but not often) a particular place – however these works are not any<br />
of those things. Looking at these works as a whole, I see the main<br />
preoccupation has been water, and where the land meets it. The<br />
landscape, although more modelled and distinct in terms of handling,<br />
is not the main motivation – just as important is the inescapable fact<br />
of the ocean.<br />
Making these works was more about the process than before, sticking<br />
pieces on, seeing what opportunities were created, adjusting, rearranging...<br />
it was about not having a set finish in mind, just responding<br />
to what the works needed. In this way I think of these works as more<br />
universal and about painting rather than simply “landscape paintings”.<br />

racheL Murphy - A deep connection to the land and sea<br />
of New Zealand, is always at the heart of my work. My desire for us,<br />
as custodians of this unique, raw beauty, to not only maintain what we<br />
already have and often take for granted, but to return what we can to<br />
it’s natural state.<br />
On The Shores Of Our Land are additionally inspired by childhood<br />
memories of looking with fascination at watercolours and lithographs<br />
of NZ prior to colonisation, at the Auckland Art Gallery.<br />
The design of the sculptural pieces for this exhibition, are evocative<br />
of things of the sea, both in nature and our relationship with it: Whale<br />
teeth, fish contours, dolphin fins, yacht sails, surf boards.<br />
