Contemporary Māori artists are using the techniques and conventions of traditional Māori fibre work in their artworks. This piece, titled 'Taonga tuku iho', was made by Kahutoi Te Kanawa in 1992. It uses a mixture of modern materials and the native fibres kiekie and pīngao, in the form of a meeting house.
