The work is designed to fill the auditorium space of the\u00a0Christchurch Art Gallery, re-conceiving and re-presenting its architecture as the twelve mythological tiers of the M\u0101ori heavens.<\/p>\n<p>In M\u0101ori mythology, the twelve heavens each have their own series of heavenly bodies. Te Toi-o-ng\u0101-rangi (also known as Tikitiki-o-nga-rangi or Rangi-tikitiki) is the uppermost of the twelve heavens and the most sacred of them all.*<\/p>\n<p>For the Christchurch Art Gallery&#8217;s exhibition Wheriko\u2013Brilliant!, architect Daniel Brown was commissioned to produce<em> Te Toi-o-ng\u0101-rangi<\/em> by Christchurch Art Gallery to activate its auditorium space for the evening of the &#8216;After Dark&#8217; event held on Friday 24 May 2019. The exhibition and event\u2019s timing coincide with Matariki, the M\u0101ori new year. The word \u2018Wheriko\u2019 means to sparkle or dazzle and several of the works refer to the stars and sky, or prismatic light effects. Visitor Programmes Coordinator Amy Marr organised the \u2018After Dark\u2019 special event on the evening of Friday 24 May. It included <em>Te Toi-o-ng\u0101-rangi<\/em>, performances, tours and the opportunity to view the exhibition throughout the evening.<\/p>\n<p>Acknowledgements: <em>Te Toi-o-ng\u0101-rangi<\/em> was created in Adobe After Effects (Trapcode Particular), and it was donated for\u00a0 viewing over the single evening of the <em>Wheriko \u2013 Brilliant!<\/em> After Dark event. The intention was to bring even more magic and light to the wonderful, illuminated community of Christchurch and its many visitors. It owes everything to the incredible online tutorials and designs provided by Voxyde, SonduckFilm and others, who offer their inspirational designs to be used as teaching tools for others to learn from and build upon.
