Pai Pai

Pai Pai is of Tainui and Taranaki descent, and is proud to be part of Maori as a people - as a culture.

Pai considers his work to be contemporary, a unique blend of traditional cultural art and self-taught experimentation. Every design has a deeper meaning behind it. Themes in his art include unity, life rhythms, and our connection with nature.

His biggest inspirations are his whanau (family), culture, nature and life. He has a strong affinity for Aotearoa New Zealand.

Pai feels his creative journey is much like life – a journey of discovery, growth and uniqueness.
