| dc.description.abstract | This exhibition report explains the development of my own practice using laser light trails and long exposure photography to create and develop contemporary Māori digital tukutuku panels. This report introduces relevant whakapapa, tribal narratives and a historical review of the artform discussing customary materials and practical uses. I investigate and explore moving customary tukutuku into the digital paradigm of Māori moving image. Indigenous artists' models provide similarities or differences conceptually and aesthetically to support my developments. Within my own cultural paradigm I trace the origins of tukutuku back to our Māori cosmological narratives - the separation of Ranginui and Papatūānuku. The world went from dark to light in the space between and the many children of Ranginui and Papatūānuku came to life. The final exhibition works of illuminated globes stand as an acknowledgement of all living things. Finally, I focus specifically on my own personal practice with digital tukutuku. The digital works were included in the annual Toioho ki Apiti BMVA exhibition Matatau 2022 at the Te Manawa Art Gallery in Palmerston North. Ka mārama, ka mārama, tākiri ko te ata, kōrihi ko te manu, he manu kororī, he manu kororī, kōrerotia mai nō tuawhakarere nau mai i te ao, haere ra i te pō, kia hī ake ana te atākura he tio, he huka, he hauhu. | en |
