Matariki 2025: IN/DIGITAL SPACES

The Physics Room and Te Matatiki Toi Ora The Arts Centre bring together IN/DIGITAL SPACES, an interdisciplinary performance installation developed from its debut at Tiny Fest 2024.

IN/DIGITAL SPACES takes us into e ao hangarau, the technological world, spanning past, present, and future. The artists delve into what it means to be Māori in a digital space, inviting the audience to experience a representation of Māori computational existence.

What does it feel like to be Māori in a tech-driven future? What might it mean to be Māori 1,000 years from now, in a world where technology has become all-encompassing? The installation is a chasm, a gap, a void—an immersive space where these questions and others can be explored, uplifting and elevating our voices as tangata whenua, coexisting with and within, the future of the digital world.

Artists include: Bea Gladding, Janaye Henry, Nicholas Ahu Gartner, and protectionspell.
