About the Artist
Maku Fenaroli (Justina Makurata Bisset) is a self taught artist, born in Auckland but practicing in Melbourne since 2013. She has enjoyed drawing and painting all her life but only really started sharing it with the world when she moved to Melbourne. Her Iwi is Ngāi Tūhoe, and her whanau hail from the Waimana ranges, a beautiful part of New Zealand that Maku enjoys visiting. The mum of two, having moved away from New Zealand feels a sense of home when creating Māori artwork with her signature layered patterns, and as such has expressed that her artwork will primarily feature Maori work moving forward.
