Davina Duke (born 1975) is a Māori contemporary uku (clay) artist from Aotearoa/New Zealand. She was included as an example of a contemporary Māori artist in the 'teacher guidance' section of the NCEA Visual Arts Standard 1.1 entitled Ngā taonga.[1]

Family background

[edit]

Duke is of Ngāti Wai, Ngāti Rehua, Taitokerau, and Patuharakeke descent.[2] She was born in Tāmaki Makaurau (Auckland) in 1975, but spent her time practising in Takahiwai[3] and Bay of Islands in a head of arts department position at a secondary school. Her son, Marino Duke, attributes much of the inspiration for his career as a Māori graffiti artist to his mother and her mentors, including Manos Nathan.[4]

Career

[edit]

Duke began her artistic career by studying at NorthTec Whangārei in the 1990s and gaining knowledge and skills from artists Geoff Wilson, Manos Nathan, and Colleen Waata Urlich.[3] She has worked as a ceramist, artist, sculptor, and art teacher in Kamo High School, Whangārei.[2]

She is a member of Ngā Kaihanga Uku, a Maori clayworkers collective,[2] and was the 2023 Secretary and Senior Arts Associate of the Takahiwai Māori Committee.[5]

Duke experiments with the materiality of uku (clay) and its relationship with the land that she whakapapas to, Tai Tokerau and Takahiwai.[3][6] She uses layers of varying texture and finish on her pieces,[6] and her specific use of the sgraffito method to scrape puhoro designs into her works connects the pieces to her whakapapa (genealogy) and te ao Māori.[3][6]
