SARA HUGHES
Sara Hughes is amongst Australasia’s most celebrated artists, and her creation for the exterior of the New Zealand International Convention Centre is one of the largest public artworks in New Zealand history. She has also completed major works in the ANZ Centre and 17 Albert Street, also commissioned by Paul Baragwanath.
Sara has exhibited at Te Papa Tongarewa and museums and galleries across New Zealand and overseas. She has a strong connection to Uptown – her mural at the intersection of Symonds Street and Mt Eden and New North Roads is a much-loved local landmark. Sara is represented by Gow Langsford Gallery.
