Maori Lane is a work that considers the ownership of fresh water rights in Aotearoa. This work was carried out the night before the exhibition opening and involved a 2.5 hour darting out onto Symonds St, Auckland to stencil MAORI LANE in white chalk onto the bus lane. The idea for this work was to create a special lane for Māori.
