Description
Te Kāinga Marire is the only private native garden sanctuary in New Zealand to be rated as a Garden of International Significance. Te Kāinga Marire’s (translated ‘peaceful encampment’) point of difference lies in the natural plant associations that evoke a feeling of the real New Zealand. This native plant paradise was developed in 1972 from clay wasteland. Keen outdoor adventurers, the owners wanted a bird-friendly garden designed around the ecological groups they had observed in the wild. New Zealand native grasses, climbers, herbaceous plants, shrubs and trees have been carefully nurtured around rustic fences, a wetland, a colonial bush hut and cool fern-filled whare. Shy tui now regularly fly into the garden to feed.

Tasha Waterson is a Taranaki artist based in New Plymouth. Tasha’s artwork takes inspiration from the human form and her sculptures are line drawings that blur boundaries between two dimensional and three dimensional drawings The shadows cast by the sculptures give the artwork more depth and confuses the viewer into thinking that the shadows are part of the drawing.
