A visual arts installation and durational performance for MOA's Haida House, Ko Te Ākau explores the formation of new spaces, the performance of Indigenous languages, poetry and ancestral bodies. The hope of a poetic land, water and sky is the horizon carried by the project, where optimism and guidance of a human being in ceremonial performance places our imagination amongst the cosmos.
A vehicle for past, present and future presences,Ko Te Ākau transports us through remembrance, acknowledgement and aspiration.
