About the event
Te Mata Hou - Within the walls of our Whare Tangata
An Exhibition by Areena Smith.
“Mata Hou” is the ever-present realisations of lifelong connection, responsibility and commitment to protect and enhance the next generation. Navigating expansive and ever-changing tidal shifts of motherhood, the first breath of life brings a new dawn, a new way of life and a recollection of stored genetic data to be shared again with the world. Whakapapa brings life and to life, we bring Whakapapa.”
