Episode Details

Te Ara Minhinnick is a Maori artist from Waiuku, descended from Ngati Te Ata, whose practice begins with gathering uku, sand and soil from the waterways of her rohe and asking what histories those materials carry. She's one of eight emerging artists, curators and writers selected for Learning from Venice, a programme funded by Naveya & Sloane giving Aotearoa creatives the chance to experience the Biennale firsthand. She joins Culture 101 fresh from packing her bags, on going overseas to see art for only the second time in her life.
