He Wāhanga nō te Kōrero brings together ngā ringatoi Māori, each responding to a kōrero of their choosing. Space is held for each artist to interpret this in their own way, guided by their whakaaro and practice.
Working across fibre, painting, photography, digital and mixed media, these works sit in relation to one another. Not held within a single narrative, but acknowledging the depth and continuity of kōrero.
