Jhana Millers adds Claudia Kogachi to its stable
The Wellington-based gallery announces representation of the young artist
Words: Rose of Sharon Leake
Wellington’s Jhana Millers gallery announced its latest representation: mixed media artist
Claudia Kogachi. At just 25 Kogachi has made a mark on the New Zealand art scene with her painting and textile works which lean into the personal dynamics of family and relationships. “Claudia’s works exude humour and personality,” says
Jhana Millers. “Through her paintings and rugs she invites us into her private life: she depicts her hobbies, her relationships, her anxieties – she is not afraid to share her vulnerabilities with us. The cartoon nature of the works and flat surfaces convey exactly the right amount of information, not too little and not too much. I believe she is a young artist with a long and successful future ahead of her.”
