Listen to the artists describe the meaning behind these whāriki (woven mats which utilise traditional weaving techniques).

This whāriki depicts how whānau permeates everything we do; the depth of the words, speeches and meaning of the waiata (songs) embraces and benefits all whānau (family), hapū (kinship group, subtribe) and iwi (tribe). These concepts are embodied in the top and bottom designs.
