Pride Elevates, Pride Connects

Repositioning Auckland Pride’s theatrical programme into a coherent platform for development, presentation, and touring — increasing box office performance, artist progression, and national visibility.

ALL IN

A national campaign and live event designed to address digital inequity — creating space for rangatahi to speak, be heard, and shape the conversation.

Auckland City of Colour

The city got a glow up. A Matariki-led takeover of light, colour, and toi Māori — spilling across laneways, waterfront edges, and shopfronts. Built with artists, carried by the moana, and made to interrupt and celebrate the everyday.

Huarahi Toi

A city-wide public art pathway reclaiming Takatāpui presence — across the docks, Britomart, and the spaces that held cruising, sex work, and nightlife. Grounded in the city of a hundred lovers and waka — built on connection, movement, and those who came before. Those who built this city on rock & roll.

Whānau Mārama

A Matariki-led activation honouring ahi kā and the many waka that first came ashore — connecting their descendants working in the city today. Through collective practice and graffiti as contemporary pou, the work centres Māori presence, labour, and whakapapa within the everyday life of the precinct.

BNZ

Embedding te ao Māori within a national banking brand — shaping how BNZ expresses itself across product, language, and customer experience.

Art Direction

An internationally recognised practice shaping image, casting, and narrative. Rooted in Aotearoa, the work centres identity and whakapapa — producing visuals that define moments, shift perspective, and move across global platforms with clarity and intent.

Lowtide

A grassroots platform turned cultural hub for space for music, image, and emerging talent. Built through community, evolving into a site for experimentation, collaboration, and creative independence.

Pīkari Mai!

A browser-based intervention that redirected global attention — replacing coronation coverage with Indigenous news, and reframing what is understood as “mainstream.”

Wharenui Harikoa

Wharenui Harikoa he poro whakahākoko, ko Uenuku tāwhana ki te rangi. Wharenui Harikoa is a refracting prism of Tīpuna inspired light, connecting all people globally, transforming deeply felt joy.

Te Tīmatanga 2023

The return and embedding of Te Tīmatanga — a kaupapa taking root across the city. Holding Takatāpui stories, relationships, and futures in place, it moves from moment to foundation.

5G Street Museum

5G Street Museum reimagined how technology could operate in public space — turning the streets of Aotearoa into a network of place-based stories, accessible in real time through mobile.

Spark

A programme of culturally grounded innovation — embedding te ao Māori, language, and identity into national campaigns and digital experiences. Shifting how a major telecommunications provider connects with people, through work that balances scale, access, and cultural integrity.

Te Tīmatanga 2022

Establishing Aotearoa’s first dedicated Takatāpui arts platform — grounding contemporary practice in whakapapa, remembrance, and collective care, while transforming Auckland Pride’s artistic and organisational direction.

C-Story

A platform for perspective; bringing together artists, thinkers, and communities to question how Tāmaki Makaurau is seen, shaped, and lived.
