Sanderson are pleased to present the exhibition Delayed Needs by Llenyd Price.


Price (b.1997 Meanjin Brisbane, Australia) is a painter based in Kirikiriroa Hamilton, whose practice investigates the layered and often conflicted relationship between the people and land of Aotearoa. The artist's paintings present a personal investigation into the internal questioning of self-identity and their place within Aotearoa’s natural environment.

Price’s featured terrains are often inspired by specific locations within the Waikato and Kirikiriroa, where the artist spends time walking and exploring. Price first ventured into these areas in the hopes of attaining a ‘clearer’ mind. With mental health issues looming, these spaces help the artist to find ways to temporarily escape from ‘reality’. As a consequence, the artist has developed an interest in the native bush; often found scattered alongside building and construction zones that edge into the natural ecosystems and sections of farm-land.

For Price, painting serves as a way of processing experiences, thoughts, and anxieties through the lens of memory. The artist makes these works simultaneously, whereby each piece communicates moments to each other. Some works have colours in block, which reference specific experiences and emotions from moments in time. Surrounded by open plains or forested vistas Prices’ figures blend into their landscapes, representing the artist’s conscious and unconscious thoughts of past and future prospects.

“I’m confronted, like always, by unresolved issues, which catch up with me or flee from me. My needs are delayed, but when I enter into these spaces it's calming in my head, it's peaceful and things make sense.”
