We are Tiaki Objects Conservation

 

WE ARE

workING with communitieS to preserve cultural heritage - because our collective cultures matter.

Our material heritage connects us to our past. It holds the stories, knowledge, and relationships that shape who we are and where we come from.

As conservators, we work alongside communities to hold space between the tangible and intangible - bringing forward cultural knowledge and conservation practice.

Through this approach, we support culturally grounded ways of caring for heritage that reflect the values, knowledge, and connections of the communities it belongs to.
