About The Event
Tā Ua: The Rain in Print is a moving exhibition of original lino prints inspired by pūrakau (ancestral stories) and kōrero (narratives) connected to Matariki. Created by international and local artists, the works explore te ao Māori through fresh eyes.
This year’s Matariki theme, Waipuna-ā-rangi, which acknowledges the connection between rain and the nurturing of life, resonates strongly throughout the exhibition. Rain, as both subject and symbol, reflects the renewal, growth, and interconnectedness embodied in these works.

Where: Art + Body Creative Studios, 229A Maunganui Road, Mount Maunganui
