- 'This is a story about the power of art to help us find a way through the darkness. It is about how art can bring out the best in us, and the worst. The artworks in question are five wooden panels carved in the late 1700s by ancestors in Taranaki.' - Rachel Buchanan
'Te Motunui Epa' by Rachel Buchanan examines how five interconnected carved panels have journeyed across the world and changed practices, understanding and international law on the protection and repatriation of stolen cultural treasures.
This book was launched at Puke Ariki Museum on Monday 21 November 2022. The launch was supported by Ngāti Rāhiri and speakers included Peter Priest, Mahara Okeroa and Rachel Buchanan, with the event facilitated by Damon Ritai.
