Kete Aronui
Peata Larkin's language is that of geometric abstraction and pattern deeply informed by Maori culture. Larkin has pioneered a way of making which is unique. Acrylic paint is pushed through a weave substrate so that the works acquire sculptural characteristics. Individual dots of colour are presented in an abstract pattern (based on Maori weaving)
