Artist Statement:
In such a short time,
Patricia Van Lubeck has
quickly become a leading

when she started the 21st
century by becoming a full

moved to the Bay of Plenty in
New Zealand in 2005. Since
then her work has taken a new
direction.

visually very dynamic. Her
paintings have realistic
elements, but above all an
alienating atmosphere. Her
works in recent years show
landscapes and weird plant
species which she calls her
psychedelic gardens.

My inspiration comes from the
ordinary world around me.
It's the artist in me that
puts things in an unusual
perspective. Picture a baker
