Urban Kainga: Reweti Arapere, Siliga David Setoga, Terry Koloamatangi Klavenes, Nick McFarlane
16 January – 28 March 2010

How do we define an urban community? How do people form and retain their cultural identity in a city environment where people from many places and cultural backgrounds have gathered?

Urban Kainga features the art of four male artists who explore some of the challenges faced by Māori and Pacific communities trying to retain traditional cultural customs on top of the realities of suburban life. The works explore how an artist’s environment can inform and shape their personal identity, as well as the collective identity, customs, and culture of their communities.
