Have you spotted
Reuben Patterson’s
Andalé Andalé artwork
in Newmarket? A
striking floral pattern
which glitters across 15
aluminium panels on
Remuera Road outside
the Newmarket Train
Station. The work’s name
translates into the Latin
America expression of
‘Hurry Up’, the idea of
expressing movement
talks to the positioning
of the artwork. Being
placed on the outside
walls of the Newmarket
Train Station, this mural
references motions of
people entering and
exiting the station.
