About


Utu ā Matimati translates as “to take back what belongs to you” Meaning.. land, culture, identity. A reclaimation. We are a Takatāpui lead arts collective, we host workshops in our Studio based in the heart of Pōneke city and publish art magazines with a focus on identity and decolonising through the practice of mahi toi (art). We are very much a community, our kaupapa values Tuakana Teina relationships for Rangatahi Takataapui to have queer, indigenous elders to look up to in a world where we juggle various marginalisations. Being visible and firm in who we are can send a light to those in our community to find a place of belonging. so Nau Mai Haere Mai. Welcome to Utu x
