Ma’taria Pekepo: Toku Inangaro i taku Peu Maori

My love for my culture. My Pride. My Past, My Present, and My Future.

Ōtepoti | Dunedin

Kia orana!

I am a proud Cook Islander and I show love for my culture through various forms of arts and crafts.

I enjoy bringing patterns to life using bright colours, creating pieces gives me a sense of 'home'. I love promoting my Cook Island culture, and also the Pacific Islands as a whole.

I feel that our traditional art needs a whole lot of loving and it deserves to be seen by the world. I hope that my pieces on show can give you an insight on how beautiful it is to be of Cook Island descent, and to carry on the work of our forefathers.

Meitaki ma’ata e Kia Manuia!
