“Art and jewellery making is a medium by which I can communicate my heritage to both local and global audiences. I seek to nurture and encourage others through my work, by way of my actions and choices as an artist" - Keri-Mei

Keri-Mei Zagrobelna is a full-time jeweller, artist, tutor, and mentor exploring adornment, murals, sculpture, photography, and research. Her contemporary Māori practice blends unique, expressive designs with her Te Āti Awa and Whanāu-ā-Apanui heritage. Raised among museums and art through her grandmother and mother, Keri-Mei crafts pieces reflecting personal and cultural narratives. A 2012 Whitireia BaPPa graduate, she has exhibited and lectured extensively in Aotearoa and abroad, sharing her passion through talks, workshops, and exhibitions.
