We have begun working on large collage murals which tell the stories of our past from Tane te Wananga through to Maui, Whatonga, Tara and Te Whiti. We will also include the arrival of our school on the site. It is a really abstract piece! We looked at the work of the New York artist Conrad Marca-Relli for inspiration. Our Artists in residence, Cloe and Teuila have been directing the project and everyone will be having a go at tearing uo paper and other materials to contribute to this amazing project.
Below is a work by Marca-Relli.
The mural will be going up on the walls of Mahutonga Matariki next week. Come and have a good look at them and see if you can identify the story they set out to tell.
