above: Bowentown and Matakana Island silhouetted against the morning sun. The mural is a section from Te Whanau a Tauwhao by Te Maari Gardiner. Bowentown was the original Katikati and home of the Whanau a Tauwhao people. The mural depicts the interconnectedness of these people, with their home, with Otawhiwhi and outlying islands, with their environment, with Tangaroa god of the sea, and with their ancestors and history.
