Toi Māori on the Map

There's a lot of energy and excitement about the Pacific, the arts of the Pacific past and present. [...] Even later this year in the British Museum there's going to be another exhibition on the Pacific, so it's 'Pacific Fantastic' here in England, and we're really happy about that.

– Curator Steven Hooper

It's all kind of one way: the conversation between the people who're collecting and the objects. What we're doing is giving the objects a voice.

– George Nuku

To reconnect, to revitalise the taonga ... And for the artists too: to show the UK we have a vibrant, dynamic, exciting, modern, urban culture ...

– Curator Rosanna Raymond on the kaupapa of the exhibition
