Kirstin Carlin | Ingrid Starkes Interview

IS ARTIST. Kirstin Carlin

We were introduced to Kirstin Carlin by our friend Imogen Taylor, another wonderful artist living and working in Auckland. Introduced in a very modern sense, we were immediately struck by her work Mustard beside Imogen in a picture on facebook! Imogen let us know about an event called Parlour -where artists open their living rooms to share their work. We traipsed along, our family of five and it was fantastic to see art in this way, informal, relaxed - at home. We caught up with Kirstin to learn more about what she does, as we like what she does very much indeed!

 

A very quick what-you-do?

I make paintings in my studio on Great North Road and do some freelance visual research type work for the advertising industry when it comes in.

 

Is it what you thought you would do?

I think so, I can’t seem to stop painting anyway.
