Kaore au I ngaro ai. He kākano I ruia mai I Rangiātea.
I will never be lost. I am a seed sewn from Rangiātea.

Your identity is your sense of who you are. It encompasses who you are physically, mentally, and in your relationships. Understanding one’s identity is essential to personal growth and mental stability. Tuakiri | Beyond Skin is a project surrounding personal identity and the power that understanding it can have on us.

Tuakiri | Beyond Skin employs the power of Taonga Pūoro as a tool of self realisation. Individuals will be provided with the tools and wisdom to craft their own Taonga to serve as a tool to heal, uplift, and inspire them on their journey towards self understanding.
