Karanga Ink is a studio of Maori and Pasifika artists who have over 25 years tattoo experience collectively. Specialising in Maori, Pacific and Indigenous tattoo their work often speaks to the wearer’s personal story; reflecting whakapapa, whanau and significant life events.  Karanga Maha can be translated to the call of the many and refers to the many stories told through marking the skin.  This exhibition offers an insight into the artist’s practice and the wearer’s journey through a series of photographic portraits.
