Tena koe!

My mana tangata are deeply inspired by the whenua, whakapapa and the

lived experiences that have shaped my journey.

Each piece reflects a connection to my ancestors, as well as those who are

living, and their stories that continue to guide me.

My intention is to bring warmth, connection and a sense of belonging. As I

shape the earth in my hands, it slowly becomes something that carries

meaning, memory and connection.

My wish is that each piece finds a special place in your home, and becomes

part of your own story.

Nga mihi, Fiona
