Te Whare a Papaīra, Ngāti Kahungunu ki Ahuriri, Kai Tahu, Ngāti Porou, Ngāti Tūwharetoa 

Neke Moa’s practice seeks to promote hauora by deepening connections between tāngata, tohunga, and atua. Using materials from taiao and drawing on customary and contemporary processes, she works to make mātauranga and pūrākau newly accessible.  Her work explores our connections within the spaces of the seen and unseen, the place where wairua resides, and creativity is sourced. 

“Through collaboration, building and maintaining relationships and a constant curiosity, I am able to sustain an art practice that continues to evolve.”
