Raranga (Māori weaving) is full of symbolism and meaning. Each piece of raranga is a reminder of the skills and stories Māori brought to Aotearoa. Weaving is a living art form passed down from the ancestors and a strong symbol of the survival of Māori culture. Māori people followed the stars across the Pacific Ocean, so weaving both stars and fish symbolises that strong connection to moana, our ocean.
