Briana Jamieson is a Te Whanganui-a-Tara based painter who produces luminous oil paintings through her expanded meditative painting practice. Leaning into her love of writing and poetry, allowing the words to call out to her paintings, and in turn the paintings to her poetry.
In her current exhibition at Sanderson Contemporary, Garden Day, Jamieson produces a beautiful body of paintings that are inspired by her time spent at her local community garden.
