The Incubator Creative Hub is proud to be welcoming Te Tuhi Mareikura Trust to The People's Gallery - Toi ka rere, for this special exhibition "Moemoeā" during the programme of Matariki Tauranga Moana events.
“Mehemea ka moemoeā tātou, ka taea e tātou” Dream together so that we may rise together.
Matariki, and each of the seven stars are wāhine guiding Papatūānuku to prepare for the year to come, using their unique individual vision and qualities to bring mauri to the different environments of te ao marama. This is also a time where they learn new skills and gain new knowledge from her and each other, which they guard and pass on to others.
Conceived in 2015 and spearheaded by leading Māori artists of the Mataatua region, Te Tuhi Mareikura Charitable Trust (TMT) Tauranga is passionately dedicated to bringing audiences and artists together to experience, explore and develop the unique artistic art legacy of the Tauranga Moana region. Te Tuhi Mareikura Charitable Trust connects artists together with the community to create public art works, share cultural arts as well as forge art relationships with unique international indigenous communities through the work of Ngā Uri o Muturangi. Our goal is to advance education in Māori arts by encouraging and promoting learning opportunities for Aotearoa's visual artists to build on their knowledge and develop their skills through wānanga and workshops. Ko tāku toi tāku ohooho! My origin is my awakening!
On display in The People's Gallery from June 12th to the 3rd of July.
Opening event on Friday the 11th of June, 5-8pm, at The Incubator Creative Hub.
