Graham Hoete (aka Mr G) is constantly honing his craft as a multi-disciplined artist, but some of that steely focus has shifted to learning te reo Māori. This year he enrolled in Te Tohu Paetahi, alongside his kaiako Ngairo Eruera he talks about whakamā, overcoming that harsh inner voice, and what inspires him.
Graham Hoete is an acclaimed artist and resides in the Bay of Plenty. His career reached new heights when he painted a mural of Prince in Minnesota back in 2016.
