In Foxton Te Awahou Nieuwe Stroom opened in 2017 in a former Mitre10 barn. In both languages it means ‘’the new stream’’. It’s in the shadow of a windmill, beside a flax museum, marking that it’s 150 years since this was the centre of a harakeke boom.
In this week’s art journey, Mark Amery takes us on a drive from Foxton, to Palmerston North and on to Masterton. The things that dominate can also be those most taken for granted. The lower North Island is dominated by both the Tararua mountain range and large tracts of farmland. I took a summer Te Hīkoi Toi around the Tararua, from the Horowhenua to the Wairarapa.
