Sometimes I can't believe how many talented people I know... One of those super talented people, is this wahine: Yvonne Tana.
She is an uku sculptor. She is amazing.
If you turn up to Yvonne's whare, its likely you will find her at her table, making something awesome, cracking jokes, music turned up full bore. She is so full of life and wairua, it's little wonder her sculptures are so moving.
She is working on numerous commissions and various exhibitions she has planned.
Her work is just beautiful - her specialty is women, with big butts! Something so incredibly feminine, strong and emotive in every piece.
I love going to Yvonne's whare. Its full of beautiful collections. Old silver, old radios, artwork from all over New Zealand gifted or traded to her by other amazing artists.
She is also an avid collector of kete and other raranga items.
