Since 1998 Jason Hall’s jewellery has been asking questions about what it means to be Pakeha. 1839 Exchanges: Jewellery by Jason Hall is an exhibition about jewellery, identity and cultural exchange.
It features a series of amulets created for Frederick Edward Maning, an Irishman who arrived in Aotearoa in 1833 and became a trader. Maning is a well known Pakeha Maori, a term that refers to Europeans who lived as Maori in the early phase of colonisation. Maning, who initially advised Maori not to sign the Treaty of Waitangi, later became a land court judge in the 1860s, and a member of the European colonial gentry.
Most cultures have made amulets, in which part of what is feared (commonly a tooth or claw) is worn to protect the wearer from harm. Hall’s jewellery uses the amulet to talk about the anxieties of being Pakeha. These are ambiguous objects – it is not always clear who is protected by Hall’s amulets, or what terrors they are intended to fight off.
Damian Skinner, curator
