The 1 1/2 hour feature 'Canvassing The Treaty' is a thought provoking art and social experiment. It follows six New Zealand artists, three Maori and three non-Maori, as they gain deeper insights into the Treaty of Waitangi and create cross-cultural collaborative artworks.
In Part 1 of 6 the artists attend a treaty education workshop at Pakiri, north of Auckland, guided by Moana Jackson and Ingrid Hughens. Ngapuhi kaumatua Kingi Taurua begins by saying "the treaty needs to be talked about again." We're introduced to the artists Mike Davison, Samapeap Tarr, Sofia Minson, Kura Te Waru Rewiri, Dagmar Dyck and Chris Bryant, and learn about their diverse Maori, European and Asian heritage.
