This year we Kiwi celebrate the new Matariki Holiday on Friday, 28 June.

The Matariki Star Cluster, also called Pleiades, is now visible in the sky. It is a symbol of Maori navigation and culture and the beginning of New Year.

Therefore, I am pleased to greet you with my MATARIKI Sky Sculpture and hope that this magnificent stainless-steel sculpture can one day become an art symbol of New Zealand. A Happy Matariki Day
