About art by RIWA - studio & gallery

Ko Hikurangi te maunga

Ko Waiapu te awa

Ko Horouta te waka

Ko Te Horo te marae

Ko Ngāti Porou te iwi

Ko Maria Wawatai taku ingoa

Ko Riwa ahau

Maria "RIWA" Wawatai is a New Zealand artist, from painting to weaving, and loads in between, her forte being Toi Māori Raranga (Māori Art of Weaving).

I have been weaving wahakura since 2013, when I attended a wānanga at Te Kokiri in Levin, whilst studying my Diploma in Toi Māori Raranga.

During the final year of her degree, she was the proud recipient of the Aotearoa Scholarship Trust's "Dr Diggeress Te Kanawa Memorial Award for 2015. After graduating Maunga Kura Toi (Raranga) at Te Wānanga o Aotearoa, Riwa started teaching "Raranga for Pēpe" courses and Wahakura Rīwā (her version of wahakura) Weekend Wānanga. From these wānanga, she started to build her TEAM of kairaranga supplying Wahakura Rīwā to the Hawkes Bay DHB from 2017.

 

art by RIWA's Production Team currently supply to several DHB around te motu, and are always looking to increase their team.

I love making wahakura and what it gives to our pēpe and their whanau. Even more-so since I became a Nanny in 2019.
