Nathan Wharton of Ngāpuhi and Te Arawa is a celebrated weaving practitioner, who credits his artistry to his ancestry, his upbringing and his love for kapa haka.
He recently completed his Bachelor's degree in Māori arts at North Tec and opened his first solo exhibition at the Megan Dickinson Gallery in Whangārei.
Wharton’s love for weaving was borne out of performing for his whānau haka team Tūhourangi Ngāti Wāhiao.
