After weeks of hard work, the waka/wa'a/va'a/vaka are ready to be launched at Kororāreka (Russell). Simone Kaho spent time with expert waka carvers from across the Pacific, and discovered that making waka/wa’a/va’a/vaka requires more than artistic and technical skills.
Waka is a six-part online video series produced by Tawera Productions in collaboration with E-Tangata and the New Zealand Herald as part of Tuia 250. It was made with the support of NZ On Air. A version of this story was also published in the Herald.
