The Art Gallery

For both December and January we are blessed to have some of the most vibrant works we have ever displayed at The Bridge Hub, South Brighton.

Self taught Artist Gemma Rae Dudson has always had a huge passion for the arts. Her art is hugely inspired by urban street art/graffiti, hip hop and Japanese anime. It’s very bright, vibrant, bold, extremely detailed and clean with lots of hidden details to look at! 

Gemma has been involved in many different art projects and jobs around Christchurch city, including the previous Giraffe, Penguin and Elephant “Wild in Arts” Trails, which her elephant “Sneaky Kiwi” sold for the highest bid of the night! 

As well as an Artist, Gemma is also a professional dancer/choreographer and has worked in the industry for over 2 decades and currently works for Christchurch company “Epic Entertainment” and has done so for over 10 years now. During this time Gemma discovered a love for makeup/body art and has won many body painting competition awards. She also works as a professional makeup artist on various tv shows, advertising, photo shoots, collaborations, productions/shows and corporate events, you name it, she does it! 

Gemma comes from a very artistic family and art is what she is most passionate about, a creative at heart. She hopes her art will brighten up people’s day and put a smile on your faces.
