Sometimes we move because we want to, sometimes we move because we have to! Thinking about travel, choices, connection and whakapapa, Kāi Tahu artist Turumeke Harrington has re-imagined this gallery as a playful, reconfigurable maze. Form and reform your own path through by opening and closing the corded stanchions and navigate your way back to the beginning. Where/when/why/how will you move?

Hei ētahi wā ka neke tātou i runga anō i te kōingo,hei ētahi wā ka neke i te mea me neke! Nā runga anō i tā te ringa toi o KāiTahu, o Turumeke Harrington, wānanga i te hekenga, i te whiringa, i te hononga,i te whakapapa, kua whakaritea tēnei whare whakairi toi hei whare panga tinihanga. Māu anō tō ake ara e para mā te whakaneke i ngā here o ngā pou e neke ai koe i tētahi motu ki tētahi motu, hoki noa atu koe ki te tīmatanga. E hangarite nei ngā motu ki ngā pātiki. Ki hea neke ai/ā hea neke ai/he ahae neke ai/me pēhea koe e neke ai?
