Robyn Kahukiwa Papatūānuku - Earth Mother.
Robyn Kahukiwa is one of the foremost Māori artists in New Zealand. Kahukiwa’s work is often celebrated for its contribution to the evolution of traditional and contemporary Māori art, and her interweaving of art and politics.
Kahukiwa's 2019 solo exhibition Papatūānuku | Earth Mother presents a suite of six new paintings. These paintings offer representations of women portrayed in Kahukiwa’s signature stylised hand. The Wāhine communicate core values that are central to Kahukiwa’s practice- ‘Wāhine Toa,’ meaning woman of strength, power and courage.
Papatūānuku is the earth mother. In Māori tradition and history, Papatūānuku is a profoundly important figure, as she represents the generative foundation of all life.
View this exhibition at Warwick Henderson Gallery until August 17.
Our opening hours are Wednesday-Friday 11am-4:30pm and Saturday 11am-3:00pm.
