KIA ORA KOUTOU

 

Ko Whakarara tōku maunga

Ko Matauri tōku moana

Ko Mataatua tōku waka

Ko Ngāpuhi tōku iwi

Ko Ngāti Kura tōku hapu

Ko Te Tāpui tōku Marae

Ko Christine tōku ingoa

I’m constantly drawn towards whakaaro and concepts that lay outside of the physical world, realities that exist within the higher dimensions and the inner power of humans. You'll find alot of symbolism and symmetry in my work - languages that can span the universe and hold meaning wherever you are in the cosmos.

My culture also features heavily in my work. We have always been a deeply spiritual race, taking on the role of kaitiaki of the whenua, honouring our tūpuna, eachother and our traditions. These values guide my life and my art and I feel blessed to be able to spread the beauty of my culture.
