Looking forward to participating in the upcoming Porirua Art Trail alongside our multi-disciplinary Ngati Toa artists and my immediate family in our newly established Horomona Whanau Collective.
The artforms already included in the Horomona Whanau Collective with my teina and tuakana include taa moko, painting, taaniko, raaranga, whakairo, toi kupu and contemporary object art. Over the past year or so we have participated as a whanau in several community + art events together and our collaborative whanau toi kaupapa continues to grow, develop and evolve organically and beautifully with our complimentary skill sets, ideas, talents and personalities.
Come and visit us all at both Whitireia Polytech and at Pataka Art + Museum on 8 and 9 March 2025. We will have artistic earrings, taaniko works, bags and scarfs available as well as some original paintings and A4 frameable art prints.
2025
Back in Otaki for 2025 waananga life
in About Me
I am now based back in Otaki once more and i’m excited to also be enrolling to study whakairo (carving) for personal interest and development at Te Wananga o Raukawa for 2025.
I love learning and it’s a privilege to have the chance to study again at this point of my life.
It is also such a blessing to be back involved with my church community at Rangiatea.
