Artist: Ariki Whakataka Brightwell
Iwi: Ngāti Raukawa, Ngati Toarangatira, Ngati Huia, Rongowhakaata, Te Arawa, Tahiti, Rai’atea, Rarotonga
Description: Plaque Painting
This work depicts the well spoken pūrākau and waiata of Rona and the moon told throughout Aotearoa. While out gathering water in the moonlit night, the moon was shrouded by cloud causing Rona to trip over in the dark. Frustrated Rona cursed at the moon. In anger the moon came down from the sky and snatched her where she still resides to this day.
