About Trish Clarke
Artist, sculptor, and designer based in Whangarei, Northland, New Zealand.
Trish is established as an artist for contemporary outdoor metal sculpture and has been consistently exhibiting sculpture in indoor and outdoor exhibitions throughout NZ. Much of her work revolves around traditional gender roles and also environmental concerns. Trish has works in public and private collections including Whangarei District Council, Wallace Arts Trust and The Kings College Collection.

Camera Obscura Whangarei
 From 2015 Trish has been working with Photographer Diane Stoppard and Architect Felicity Christian
to build an 8m Weathering Steel Sculpture within which is a Camera Obscura.

Left: Copper Plague Mask made in response to COVID19. Doctors wore these during bubonic plaque outbreaks and would put aromatics in the beak. As an artist I also look at the material used as another avenue of telling a story. Copper is one substrate that kills the coronavirus within 4 hours of coming into contact
compared to three days on plastic, two days on stainless steel and one day on cardboard. Another reason to LOVE copper!
