Rua Pick was born on Moturua Island in the Bay of Islands. He travelled to Europe in 1988 and visiting the Prado Museum in Madrid and Dali Theatre Museum in Figureres, Spain were pivotal experiences for him. In 1992 Rua completed a year at Canterbury University School of Fine Arts and his studio is now in Christchurch.

Of this exhibition Rua states: "This exhibition is an homage to the Ancient People of Waitaha and the Waitaha nga hoanga tuhituhi (rock drawings and paintingsa) that adorn the limestone caves and shelters throughout South Canterbury and the South Island. Timeless creations were written on stone so long ago, they still speak to us across time and space, singing of the past, present and future like the bright stars above. These artworks are a tribute to the Tuapapa (Foundation) of this sacred land, honouring the tree and its many branches that have grown from those foundations, acknowledging the past to empower the future."
