Rei is a Māori LED gallery by Kāti Wheke, te mana whenua o Whakaraupō.
Comprised of an artist collective from the Ōhinehou community, Rei promotes a diverse range of traditional and contemporary art with a special emphasis on toi Māori. As both a commercial gallery and an exhibition space, we offer a rigorous program with works from emerging, mid-career, and established artists from Aotearoa, and beyond. Our aim is to unify Tangata Whenua and Tangata Tiriti under one roof, to broaden understandings of our shared history, to be grounded in our traditions and elevated by our innovations. As an extension of Whakaraupō Carving Centre, Rei is a foundation for students from our toi Māori programmes to be mentored and guided as the next generation of toi Māori artists.
