Abstract

INTRODUCTION Mark Cleverley became one of Aotearoa New Zealand's leading creative influencers through a six-decade outpouring of ideas and creations-spanning ceramics, architecture, graphics, type design, textiles... the list goes on. In 2014, in recognition of his significant contribution to the profession, Mark was bestowed a prestigious Black Pin by the Designers Institute of New Zealand. The same year also saw an exhibition of Mark's works, curated by Jonty Valentine, lecturer at Unitec Institute of Technology (Auckland), and hosted at Objectspace in Auckland. Sadly, Mark passed away in 2022, aged 88. To honour his legacy, we asked Jonty if he might offer some reflections and background on this extraordinary creative thinker. ...
