Kāi Tahu, Kāti Māmoe 

I am a passionate artist, textile designer and lover of colour and storytelling. I often use 

spiritual themes throughout my work, inspired by the subconscious mind. My emotions 

intertwine with both the fantasy and the natural world. I use a spiritual practice to express important messages throughout my work.

I live and work in the rural Horowhenua district. My passion for painting and drawing accelerated when studying towards a Bachelor of Design at Massey University in Wellington. Although majoring in textile design, I was most drawn to the artistic aspect of the work. Since relocating from Wellington to embrace the serenity of nature, my commitment to nurturing and honing my art has been unwavering, and I have exhibited in solo, collaborative, and group shows throughout the region.
