'Te Motunui Epa' - Rachel Buchanan & Honiana Love (BWB Talks)

'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
This stunning book examines how five interconnected carved panels, Te Motunui Epa, have journeyed across the world and changed practices, understanding and international law on the protection and repatriation of stolen cultural treasures.
'Te Motunui Epa' is discussed in this BWB talk by Rachel Buchanan (author) and Honiana Love (Tumu Whakarae, Ngā Taonga Sounds & Vision).
