The Living Pā Project

Panel Discussion

2.00pm 25 March 2022

Te Pātaka Toi Adam Art Gallery

Set in The Machine Stops exhibition, this panel discussion brought together Hugh Tennent, Alistair Cattanach & Rhonda Thomson with chair, Robin Skinner to offer their insights on Te Herenga Waka’s Living Pā project, a major exercise in sustainable building that encodes indigenous principles relating to the interrelations between people and the built environment to offer a restorative to the history of human occupation in Aotearoa New Zealand.
