16 Byron Street, Napier
As Aotearoa ventures into a new coalition that vows to undermine the rights of tangata whenua under our partnership the Treaty of Waitangi.
Now more than ever is the time for collaboration; to challenge the status quo for what mahi toi (art) is and what it does for the collective.
trick or treaty speaks to the trickery and deceit that surrounds the documents that united Aotearoa:
the treaty of Waitangi,
te tiriti o Waitangi.
Trick or Treaty is an ode to tangata whenua, the original tricksters,
descendants from Māui Pōtiki.
Featuring all original works by creatives from Te Matau-a-Māui and every corner of Aotearoa whose work speaks to the kaupapa of Māui Pōtiki:
Cody Hollis / Pūtere / Hamuera Hita / Jacqui Broughton / Jr the Free / Keith Cook / Paiana Whaanga / Phil Belcher / Pounamu Wharekawa / Putaanga Waitoa / River Jayden / Tim Steel
toitū te tiriti toitū te tāngata toitū te whenua
