Mai Te Uira at Hokitika's Regent Theatre
Mai Te Uira
FRI 13 JUN
Coming Soon to
Hokitika's Regent Theatre
One of New Zealand’s best known musicians, producers, and innovators, Tiki Taane (Ngāti Maniapoto) and multidisciplinary artist Kereama Taepa (Te Arawa, Te Āti Awa) have joined forces to merge their two worlds together to create a brand new performance experience – Mai Te Uira.
Tiki Taane (Ngāti Maniapoto), vocals, guitar & taonga puoro
Kereama Taepa (Te Arawa, Te Āti Awa), multidisciplinary artist
To much acclaim, Mai Te Uira was premiered in Koraunui Stokes Valley in 2023, and is grounded in a karakia that references the atua and the whakapapa of our art forms and explores how innovation can be transformative when we open our minds to new ways of thinking.
Told through the stories of three atua – Te Uira, the atua of lightning and new connections like technology, digital culture, and cyberspace; Tānemahuta, a creator himself, providing us with our own capability and capacity to create; and Hine-te-Iwaiwa, whose strength we seek when searching for knowledge to give, receive, and connect – this creative collaboration of music and digital animation reflects the transmission of knowledge and cements ancestral relationships.
Created to be performed within community spaces, Mai Te Uira will be presented for local schools and community groups during the day and ticketed audiences at night.
This creative collaboration is presented as a result of a unique partnership between The Dowse Art Museum and Chamber Music New Zealand.
