Māori Art Created with Aroha – $48
Kia ora, Neighbourly whānau!
I’m Paige, an 18-year-old Māori artist studying at Waikato University. I create authentic Māori artwork inspired by my whakapapa, whenua, and the stories of my whānau. Art keeps me grounded in my culture and helps support my studies as I work towards a future supporting tamariki in our community.
This piece is created with aroha, intention, and deep respect for our culture.
Price: $48
If you’d like to support a young local artist and bring meaningful Māori art into your home, I’d love to share my mahi with you. Ngā mihi nui!
