"Te Wai O Te Whenua (Water of the Land) celebrates the sacred flow of water and it's deep connection to our whenua. Using bold red, black and white Kōwhaiwhai-inspired patterns, the design symbolises water's life-giving energy - honouring the land, nurturing our people, and connecting us to our Whakapapa (Ancestry)." -River Jayden

River (Ngāi Tahu, Ngāti Whaoa) is a visual artist and graphic designer who specialises in digital design and painting. Her visually striking work is bold and colourful and her murals & public artworks have gained strong national and international recognition.

River has a Bachelor of Arts from University of Canterbury. Her art history research looks at colonial and religious appropriation of Māori culture, with a particular focus into the appropriation of kōwhaiwhai patterns within Christianity, as a deliberate way to assimilate Māori.

“Research is fundamental to my painting practice, it inspires me to create works that spark debate, and the narrative is usually politically charged.”
