Born in Wairoa, Kerry Skipper is another self taught artist of Ngai Tahu
decent, of the Ngati Irakehu sub-tribe.
Kerrys art and craft style has been heavily influenced by the Poranui Beach
environment.
As a serious and dedicated Mother to her beautiful children, Kerry has only
been able to realise her full artistic potential over the last two years or so
and has definitely made up for lost time, producing a prolific amount of work
recently.
Kerry is attuned to thinking outside of the square, and prides herself on
originality and the love of creating something different.
She says, "With my woodworking, I love the idea of being able to give an old
post or a bit of wood a 'second life', or the chance to become something more
than it was intended to be."
Kerrys repertoire includes unique woodworking, sculpting in hessian, stone
painting, glass leadlighting, objects trouves.
