Walters has a diverse background; he seems formally trained in all the right places to justify his sometimes lofty exceptions of his image work.
His working life has been a juggling act between keeping his visual creative process alive, while applying the creative process to the other aspects of his multipotentialite existence.
in 2010 Sustantivo – A process was a seminal show which reviewed his practice since 2000. Since this show in 2010 he has been prolific in terms of production of new works and applying his practice in new areas and avenues growing beyond the visual.
Process is an important part of his work as are contemporary epistemological and philosophical views as they apply to the everyday. He investigates these things visually with contemporary drawing, painting and printmaking techniques.
He continually questions what it is we know, and what it is to Know.
He lives with his family in Nelson. New Zealand.
