This exhibition takes Harrington's voluminous, snaking patchwork as an invitation to reflect on domestic labour, Māori cosmology and moving through life.

He tono tēnei whakaaturanga o te mahi raurarahi me te kōpurepure kōpikopiko ā Harrington hei whakahuritao i te mahi ā-kāinga, te mātai tuārangi me te whakakokenga oranga.
