Tūhura. My discovery of my whakapapa.

Te Mapou te marae.

Bachelor of Design with Honours

This project is an intimate journey about my self discovery through my whakapapa.
Tūhura was born through curiosity; of me questioning what I knew of my whakapapa and wanting to have a deeper understanding of who I am.
Tūhura aims to be a doorway for encouraging Māori designers to embrace their whakapapa - to allow their heritage to influence their work and for them to have the pride to express it.
