Exhibition
“My love for patterns stems from learning more about my culture. Patterns are some of the first things you notice as a child. Patterns reflect and tie you directly to your culture and the environment; Tapa and Tatau are the fabrics of our collective society which I explore in this exhibition focusing on unique patterns and motifs through print, paint and stencil techniques.” - Numa Mackenzie
