My name is Frederick and I am a UK-based award-winning Māori artist, designer and teacher. I create contemporary art pieces, graphic design work and photography, as well as commissioned pieces for individuals and businesses directly from my studio.

As an indigenous New Zealander living abroad, I have enjoyed creating and exploring my indigenous heritage from afar in a global context. I do this by using a variety of processes, materials, theories and techniques that add texture and definition to my style of work. Moving to the UK has ironically allowed me to reconnect with and reflect upon my Māori identity and heritage.
