Toi Gallery is an artist-owned gallery at 32 Donald Bruce Rd in Surfdale, on Waiheke Island, with a 4.3 rating on Google. Its website says it is relocating and will open in November by appointment only.
The gallery features the work of Sally Smith and Chris Bailey and specialises in sculptural works. The website lists pieces by Sally Smith in aluminium, copper and bronze, with titles such as Shoaling, On Dusk, Kawakawa, Harakeke and Murmuration, finished in patinas, black enamel and beeswax. Works range from large public artworks to smaller pieces for the home, and Sally is available for private and public commissions, which can be expanded or customised. The gallery says it freights globally and opens its studio by appointment, so contact them through the website to discuss prices, availability and a visit. Asking about scale, finish and how a piece is mounted helps you picture it in your own space.
For anyone visiting Waiheke Island who loves sculpture, Toi Gallery in Surfdale is worth arranging a visit to once it reopens.
