Hidden throughout central Tauranga Moana, this thrilling trail of Wunderboxes kicks off at Tauranga Art Gallery’s POP UP Gallery located at 42 Devonport Road.
Embark on an enchanting, interactive trail and the wonderful world of ‘Wunderboxes’—five captivating miniature art installations designed for the whole family to enjoy.
In this first wave of ‘Wunderbox’ art installations, we invite you to dive headfirst into the radiant world of Raumati – Summer. Guided by renowned Tauranga-based artist, Emma Prill. Inspired from local pūrākau, you’ll embark on an extraordinary artistic exploration fuelled by the spirit of summertime.
The ‘Wunderboxes’ not only serve as vessels for sharing special Tauranga Moana stories but also help our tamariki connect with the seasons and the rhythmic dance of maramataka—enhancing our wellbeing and nurturing our vital role in its harmony.
Prepare to encounter ‘Wunderboxes’ that can be both whimsically wild and contemplatively challenging. These mini masterpieces provide a space to include those who might otherwise miss out, allowing us to delve into important stories of the past and celebrate the narratives of our time. But above all, let’s remember to unleash our sense of fun throughout this extraordinary adventure.
