Natanahira Pona
Born and bred in Turangi, all Natanahira wanted to do when he was young was join the armoured division in Waiouru. The idea of being a tank driver was a passion for him, but instead took up the second, safer option of art. Natanahira attended the New Zealand Māori Arts & Crafts Institute in Rotorua where his career as an artist blossomed and he has now been sculpting for over thirty years. He has taken part in numerous sculpture symposia in the Bay of Plenty and Waikato, including the 2014 Rotorua Sculpture Symposium, and also travelled to Nepal in 2016 to represent Aotearoa.
