Digital art in the real world. The matARiki Sculpture Trail promises a unique and interactive experience for families and art enthusiasts alike.

This groundbreaking exhibition, the first of its kind in Aotearoa, uses augmented reality (AR) technology to breathe life into digital artworks by renowned New Zealand artists. With the theme of Matariki – specifically focusing on the twin stars Waitī (fresh water) and Waitā (salt water) – the trail invites visitors to embark on a journey through augmented reality sculptures. Simply scan QR codes with your smart device and watch as digital artworks come to life before your eyes. Interact with the sculptures, learn about their meaning and the stories behind them, and immerse yourself in the vibrant world of contemporary Māori art.

There are seven artist in the sculpture trail which are Jared Wikeepa, Chris Bailey, Reweti Arapere, Rangituhia Hollis, Kereama Taepa, River Jayden and Julie Paama-Pengelly.
