Join Lisa Tucker from Art2cin2u to explore the significance of the Koru in Māori art and design in this painting workshop.
The Koru is the symbol of creation and is based on the shape of an unfurling fern frond. The circular symbol conveys the idea of movement. It signifies that as we move through life many things change but also stay the same.
Māori art workshop
This workshop offers a unique opportunity to engage in a mixture of traditional and contemporary Māori art. Learn Māori artistic practices and create your own interpretation of an artwork. You’ll learn how to incorporate the Koru into your work and gain a deeper understanding of its cultural significance. This workshop will allow you to explore a new artistic medium or simply enjoy a creative outlet with like-minded individuals.
