Fine Arts + Photo Media at Whitecliffe

“Whitecliffe classes are amazing. All the students are very creative and you get lots of one-on-one support from lecturers, not just visually in studio, but also contextually. They don’t just support you in your education, but they support you in all aspects,”

-Natasha Boshkovski, BFA Photo Media Graduate

From Trash To Treasure

Bobbie’s latest installation Kōwhai Grove has seen her light up the Tauranga CBD with 3000 illuminated flowers painstakingly crafted from 16,000 unwanted plastic bottles. Commissioned by the Tauranga City Council, it’s the culmination of more than nine months of work, and Bobbie couldn’t be prouder.
