This time legendary musician and painter Phil Dadson responds to a wildly innovative text that’s steeped in te ao Māori by Ngāi Tahu writer Nic Low. A small, striking work that’s part art book, part speculative journey. Framed around the idea of “arks” as vessels of memory and survival, it’s a haunting meditation on time, loss, and legacy. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\"It is said that the Ark of Arks was once carefully catalogued but became scrambled when we scribes began fighting over what should be preserved.
