Who Am I

"Expressing myself through art is who I am - always, making,, designing and creating."
Chani Profile Picture

New Zealand artist Chani Areaiitti weaves ancestral wisdom with contemporary design in her exclusive collection of home décor and fine art pieces. Drawing from her Māori and Cook Island Māori heritage, Chani creates pieces that transcend mere decoration to become tomorrow's treasured taonga (cultural treasures). A prolific creative Chani’s distinctive artistic vision bridges indigenous storytelling with modern aesthetics. Her dual practice as a visual artist and tattoo artist infuses each piece with deep cultural significance and meticulous attention to detail. This unique perspective manifests in collections that honour traditional Polynesian artistry while embracing contemporary design techniques. Each piece in Chani’s collection represents a chapter in her personal journey of cultural reconnection, transformed into elegant, functional art for discerning collectors. Her work speaks to those who value the profound stories and cultural heritage embedded within each creation. Chani’s growing portfolio showcases her commitment to cultural authenticity, offering collectors the opportunity to introduce meaningful, gallery-quality pieces into their homes that will be cherished for generations.
