Big Rusty - Harekeke
Bernadette’s work is inspired by the sensory language of her surroundings — shifting coastal light, textured bush, open farmland — and by the ongoing challenge to translate what she sees and feels into woven expression. The result is work that is both grounded and lyrical, honouring tradition while speaking naturally to contemporary spaces.
Her practice has received notable recognition, including winning the Wearable Art Aotearoa section in Thames and placing in the Harcourts Art Challenge. She contributed to the Star Waka for the Tuia celebrations in Whitianga and has exhibited widely, with her work held in respected galleries across Aotearoa.
Today, Bernadette Ross continues to explore the expressive potential of harakeke — creating pieces that embody patience, craftsmanship, and an enduring relationship between artist, fibre, and land.
