This tee speaks to identity, belonging and the places that shape who we are. Framed by the words of pepeha—Rangitāne the people, Ruahine the mountain, Manawatū the river and Kurahaupō the waka—the artwork connects tangata to whenua, water and whakapapa.
It is a reminder that where we come from is more than a location. It is carried through our ancestors, our stories and our connection to the land. Knowing where we come from helps us understand who we are.
