Artist, curator and project manager Margaret Aull works in installation, painting and sculpture. Based in Te Awamutu she has exhibited in Fiji, Australia, Morocco, Aotearoa and has been working in the Arts for over 20 years. A strong advocate of the importance of artists and their role in the community, she also facilitates a number of wananga aimed at bringing artists together to support their practice. 'My practice has always been centred around social, political and cultural themes that thread in whakapapa, whenua, ritual and belief systems. I am a multimedia artist in which rangahau informs the exploration of my ideas through installation, sculpture and painting'.
