As
part of our project to preserve the works of this extraordinary
artist in clay, we hope to provide documents about the work
of Dr Deirdre Airey. So far we can offer the following:
>>
Tile narratives: These pages present the stories referred
to by Dr Aireys tiles. Some are presented in her words, some
are excerpts from the bible.
>>
Deirdre Airey: artist in clay is a summary project application
sent to Creative New Zealand. It includes letters of support
from a range of prominent artists, including Barry Brickell
and the late Dr Micheal King, a friend of Dr Airey's who was
in the process of writing about her Coromandel community of
artists and her work when he died.
>> Obituary
by Dr Graham Power, a medical friend of Dr Airey's and
photographer of her works since 1976.
