Indigenous Artists gather at Tā Moko Wānanga

Reviving customary practises was part of the conversation at a recent marae gathering in Tauranga. Carvers, Clay makers, painters and customary tattoo artists came together to share their stories that relate to the impact of colonisation and their collective approach to educating the mainstream tattoo industry. Justine Murray is at the gathering at Whareroa Marae in Tauranga.
