Aimed to inspire through a connection to whenua (land) and all its living creatures with fun, family-friendly activities that encourage you to feel with your fingers, play with your imagination, connect with each other and be a proud, creative kaitiaki (guardian) of our planet.
Sustainability was front and centre throughout the entire process with the pegboards, table inlays and tree structure fabricated from recycled plastic sheet material from Critical using no glue and limited screw fixings. The exhibition has a lifespan of 2 years with all of these elements being supplied back to Critical for re-processing once it closes.
The exhibition is reformatted every 6 months with the first activities revolving around the pegboard pepeha and the creation of your own using a range of Autex shapes based on familiar Aotearoa landmarks such as mountains, rivers and beaches. This also has a direct link to the tree illustrations I created featuring native species such as Ruru, Tui and Kererū.

The Aotearoa New Zealand Pavilion is designed to be an immersive experience that conveys the theme Care for People and Place, based on kaitiakitanga.
The innovative architectural design of the pavilion by Jasmax points to the connection between people and the environment. The building has an audible and visual ‘pulse’ and the façade moves in time with a low-frequency sound to create a rippling pulse effect.
Visitors enter into a sense of their own connection with the natural world and experience Aotearoa New Zealand’s innovations, including the legal personhood status accorded to the Whanganui River in 2017 to uphold at law the river as Te Awa Tupua, a living and indivisible whole, to better provide for the river’s health and wellbeing.
The pavilion shows how New Zealanders are driven to innovate because we Care for People and Place – and it is this understanding of our connection and responsibility to the environment that motivates us to do better for future generations.
Working with Jasmax and Haumi to design and execute an experience that is powerful, refined and immersive.
