AARON WAGHORN
Born, Palmerston North, 1978, currently lives and works in Wellington.
Waghorn draws inspiration from books, movies, internet, and magazines, exploring the negative and positive spaces within the painting and offsetting one against the other. The colour circles and rays that feature throughout his work are motif the artist calls abstract interruptions.
Aaron Waghorn graduated with a BFA from Quay School of the Arts, Wanganui in 2001.
