This blog provides a visual-verbal snapshot of Maori culture and contemporary Maori lifestyles in modern New Zealand. It presents my own experiences and observations of Maori culture and is not intended in anyway to be the definitive view on all things Maori, but rather an introduction for those who want to know more about Maori culture and its place in everyday bicultural New Zealand.

Two Men, Two Cloaks
Over 1,000 people gathered at Tuahiwi Marae just north of Christchurch last weekend, for the opening of the marae's new wharenui, Maahunui II. These were just two of the men I photographed wearing korowai (cloaks).
