Self-described interdisciplinary painter, Hugo Koha Lindsay lives and works in Auckland, New Zealand. His works are minimally abstract; he is unafraid to embrace an unprimed, raw canvas, or crumpled scraps of discarded fabric, and he often leaves behind traces of the studio floor. The spray painted strokes that sweep the canvases are gestural and raw, with a seemingly no holds barred approach that contradicts the crisp and defined areas of contrasting colour. Lindsay’s works are like working drawings, the layers are evident under paint and texture; nothing is hidden but each element adds up to a cohesive whole.
