Executive Director of Tagata Moana Trust and Multimedia Artist

HOW TO APPLY

A second-generation Aotearoa-born Cook Islander, Nina is a multimedia artist whose work explores her dual Pacific and Western heritage. 

She has exhibited throughout New Zealand and has been the recipient of both UC’s Macmillan Brown Artist in Residence and Creative New Zealand’s Mana Moana Trust scholarship. Nina’s commitment is to a future where Pacific peoples are valued, have equitable access to all things and are uplifted to achieve anything. To realise this vision, Nina founded Tagata Moana Trust, a not-for-profit organisation dedicated to the advancement of Pacific peoples in Aotearoa. In 2022, Nina opened Fibre Gallery, a first of its kind space in Te Waipounamu, the South Island, facilitating Pacific artists and education.
