to urban Nelson
With geometrical patterns, stylised whakataukī (proverbs), and animal designs, new artworks are bringing colour and te reo to Nelson’s urban landscape.
The murals which have appeared under bridges, on overpasses, and in skate park bowls are the work of Māori-Welsh artist Nerys Ngaruhe.
Her goal? To create fun and inviting places in the region for families to enjoy, while feeling encouraged to speak te reo Māori.
