William Hodges Fellowship
The William Hodges Fellowship residency programme is the successor to the Southland Art Foundation Artist in Residence. The origins of the William Hodges Fellowship date back to 1980 with the establishment of the Southland Savings Bank Art Foundation. The Southland Art Foundation Artist In Residence was established in 1996 by a joint partnership between Southland Art Foundation, Creative New Zealand, Southland Museum & Art Gallery and the Southern Institute of Technology. In 1999 the Southland Art Foundation Trustees–Shirley Palmer, Gwen Neave, Russell Beck and Wayne P, Marriott resolved to rename the Artist in Residence programme the William Hodges Fellowship. This was in recognition of the acquisition of William Hodges “Maori before a Waterfall”, 1773 by the Southland Museum & Art Gallery in 1998. Hodges was regarded as the first non-Maori artist in residence in Southland, having depicted the flora, fauna and people of the region during Cook’s second voyage to New Zealand ...

Heather Straka
Heather Straka (born 1972) is a New Zealand artist, based in Auckland, who primarily works with the media of painting and photography. Straka is well known as a painter that utilises a lot of detail. She often depicts cultures that are not her own, which has caused controversy at times. Her work engages with themes of economic and social upheaval in interwar China, the role of women in Arabic society and Māori in relation to colonisation in New Zealand. Eventually, the figure became important in Straka's practice and she began to use photographs as the starting point for some of her works and "Increasingly too the body feminine has become her milieu". Education During secondary school, Straka attended night classes studying art. She was accepted into Elam School of Fine Arts where she studied sculpture. She graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in 1994. Tutors of hers included Christine Hellyar and Greer Twiss. Once she had graduated she spent five years in France where she wo ...
