Taku Rau Tīkumu explores the enduring relationship between people and alpine landscapes through the story of tīkumu - a resilient mountain plant bound to generations of knowledge, skill, and care. Bringing together the largest collection of tīkumu taonga ever exhibited, it weaves mātauranga Māori, science, oral histories, photographs, and rare records to reveal how this alpine plant carries intergenerational knowledge across Te Waipounamu.
