For artist Clint, it’s all about memories.
His work is a joyful collision of colour, form, and nostalgia. Think 80s music, sweets, gaming, and movies, all brought back to life in bold, larger-than-life artworks designed to spark recognition, happiness, and a smile you didn’t know you needed.
Based in Hamilton, Clint is an award-winning contemporary New Zealand artist known for creating modern, sculptural works that sit somewhere between pop culture, design, and nostalgia.
“I’d call my work nostalgic wall sculpture that relives my 1980s youth,” Clint says.
And that’s exactly what it does.
But Clint’s work doesn’t just look good.
It does good too.
Turning Nostalgia Into Support
In 2025, Clint made the decision to donate a portion of profits from every 30cm LIFESAVER artwork to I Am Hope, supporting youth mental health across Aotearoa.
“Let’s spread some happiness and thank the people who helped us when we needed it most,” Clint says.
Each LIFESAVER piece is a stunning resin original, crafted with care and finished with a glossy epoxy coat that gives the work its signature glass-like shine. Beyond the craftsmanship and colour, each piece carries a message of gratitude, support, and hope.
When a creative legend chooses to use their talent for good, it leaves a lasting impact. We’ve absolutely loved this collaboration, and Clint is one of those humans with truly infectious positive energy.
