Just opened is an exhibition of paintings by Pasifika artist Kulimoe’anga Stone Maka. Titled Tukutonga (Leaving Home), Maka describes this body of work as being dedicated to the moments he realised he was leaving his village, families and friends in Tonga, to search for a better life, and for his art.
