New commissions for Toi Māori Internship exhibition

Taniora will be developing an exhibition for our 2023 programme, and will be with us at The Physics Room from early July. E mihi kau ana ki a koe, e Taniora. Nau mai, haere mai!

He uri au nō Kāi Tahu, Te Ātiawa, Ngā Puhi me Ngāti Pākehā.

I’ve grown up in and around fine art throughout my life and have a keen interest in the arts, music, cinema and all things related to self and reflective expression.

I have a particular interest in cultivating space and atmosphere creatively, and showcasing my own aesthetic.

My mother has stated that ‘art is the final frontier of independent thought’, which strongly resonates with me as an indigenous person in this world.
