Blankets hold many meanings in Indigenous cultures. Paraikete Threads looks at how contemporary Māori artists are working with the stories, histories and knowledge systems embedded in the blanket. From sustainable and upcycled fashion designs, luxury blankets and repurposing mink blankets as space for wānanga, this exhibition considers how artists respond to the many threads of blanket history in te ao Māori and the new meanings produced through contemporary practice.

Māori urban drift in the last century produced one of the fastest rates of urbanisation in the world. The tide of colonisation and industrialisation swept most Māori away from their kāinga and into the cities. But the tide is turning, and now they’re coming back.

She has been making award-winning short and long documentaries for 25 years in Aotearoa and the United States. Her work has been screened on television, the web, and at festivals worldwide.

In October, Maungarongo Te Kawa (Ron) and I travelled to Kárášjohka, a village in the Arctic Circle on the Norwegian side of Sápmi. The trip was part of an ongoing collaboration with Norwegian Crafts and gave us the chance to present a collection of Maungarongo’s quilts at the village’s Sámi Centre for Contemporary Art. The exhibition was also a catalyst to extend connections to the Sámi artists in the area and create opportunities to share and discuss approaches and how we can learn from each other.
