Keith Grinter
Region: Whangarei
Keith runs the Grinter Glass studio in Whangarei, where his focus is on developing his glass blowing skills. His current work includes painted and blown vessels, shard vases and bowls and a range of vases, bowls and tumblers using coloured glass frits, often inspired by modernist painters.
He works in a variety of media including painted and blown glass, painting and sculpture. His paintings on canvas and glass are currently based on blind contour drawings made while walking. The concept of drawing while walking was developed for his Master’s degree as a means to investigate the everyday. Keith exhibits throughout New Zealand including The Auckland War Memorial Museum, Pataka and Sarjeant galleries as well as a number of commercial galleries. He was the winner of the 2015 Creative Northland Excellence in Arts Business Award.
