The exhibition centres on the festival of Matariki, which is being marked by a public holiday for the first time in 2022, the Matariki star cluster, and the fourteen Tupuna Maunga of the Tamaki Makaurau region. Matariki represents a moment of reflection and renewal, with the whetū heralding ceremonies and the seasonal harvest. Whānau, hapū, and iwi come together to celebrate life and share stories of those who have passed on. Karaka depicts the Tupuna Maunga as places of great significance, where ritual ahi (fires) were set during Matariki in times past. Matariki Ring of Fire also acknowledges Karaka's connection to Waikato-Tainui and the Kīngitanga. A key inspiration for the show is the Matariki 2019 dawn ceremony at Pukekawa Auckland Domain, which she attended. Presided over by Kingi Tūheitia, the proceedings commenced in the dark and concluded with karakia as the sun rose. The artist looked to the dawn sky and farewelled her great-nephew, Starr Karaka, who had been born and had passed away the day before, departing with the other 'blessed souls' on Te Waka o Rangi, bound for the heavens. Matariki Ring of Fire is dedicated to him.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eAuthors T\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eaua, Te-Warena; Te Awekōtuku, Ngāhuia; Clifford, Andrew.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eISBN 9780473651190\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eSoftcover\u003cbr\u003ePages 27\u003cbr\u003ePublisher Te Uru\u003cbr\u003eDimensions 210 x 210mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Te Uru","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49938636603684,"sku":"*EMK01","price":20.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0899\/1637\/5332\/files\/emilykaraka.jpg?v=1729052568"},{"product_id":"rangi-matamua-matariki-the-star-of-the-year","title":"Rangi Matamua | Matariki: The Star of the Year","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn mid-winter, Matariki rises in the pre-dawn sky, and its observation is celebrated with incantations on hilltops at dawn, balls, exhibitions, dinners and a vast number of events.
