Description
Maioha Kara
Āniwaniwa

H. 300mm x W. 599mm x D. 37mm
Maioha Kara (Ngāti Koroki Kahukura, Ngāti Tipa, Te Ātihaunui-A-Papārangi, Tūhourangi, Te Whānau a Hinetapora, Kuki Airani) has a Bachelor of Fine Art and Master of Fine Art from Massey University and is currently working towards a PhD.
In her work, Maioha explores her Māori and Cook Island whakapapa and draws inspiration and knowledge from the patterns of tukutuku, raranga/weaving, kowhaiwhai/painting and tivaevae/ traditional quilting. Her rich symbolism encompasses cosmological connections and the relationships between the natural world and Mātauranga Māori (Māori knowledge systems).
Maioha’s artwork is represented in a growing number of public art gallery collections.
