Te Rongo Kirkwood

Te Rongo’s art practice draws inspiration from and explores her Māori (Waikato, Taranaki, Te Wai-o-Hua, Te Kawerau, Ngāi Tai ki Tamaki), Scottish, and English ancestry. Her work conveys tales of the land and sea (whenua), the ancestors (tupuna) and the existential links between all things (whakapapa).
