Faces are an important part of social cognition.
Information gathered from a face helps us understand identity and build relationships.
These masks are an invitation to connect with the plant kingdom and realise compassion.
The foundations of the masks come from various Nikau palms around Aotearoa NZ.

Creative Classrooms
From the students at Mt Roskill Intermediate with their teacher Mr Wiggil. They put their minds to creating palm leaf masks with gathered material.
Thanks for letting me be a part of your world.

Ngunguru Primary School
Ngunguru Primary School took upon themselves to be creative and went on a mask making mission. With the guidance of their teacher Eden Ford the students got busy creating wonderful creatures and faces inspired by nature and made from plant material. This school with its students has a strong kaitiakitanga (guardianship) kaupapa for our environment and they really look after Ngunguru, this energy has no price. Kia kaha Ngunguru!
