Some of this country's finest kete are on show until the 29th of November at the historic Kemp House
in Keri Keri. I have been privileged to see them up close and personal and it is only as I have begun
to delve into the story of their making ( for a piece that I am writing) that I realise just what goes into
their making: harvesting the fibres, processing them, weaving them with patterns of meanings and history.
In an industrial age where everything is made in multiples - it is humbling to see these one off pieces stand their ground.
