About the artist
Aroha Te Whare (Ngāpuhi) works across painting and installation to honour whakapapa while speaking to contemporary urban life. Her practice is grounded in collaboration with hapū and schools, and in large-scale works that carry narrative across multiple panels. She has exhibited across Te Tai Tokerau and Wellington, and is known for generous public programmes that invite audiences into the making process. Collectors and institutions value her ability to balance bold graphic structure with delicate surface detail.
