Mine!

Mine! | Tessa Apa

Tessa works in her studio in Tāmaki Makaurau /Auckland.

Tessa Apa works from her studio in Tāmaki Makaurau / Auckland, creating bold textile art that centres around words and symbols — with the belief that nothing written is ever silent.

A lifelong creative with a passion for colour and vibrancy, Tessa manipulates yarn in a painterly fashion, layering texture and form. Her work invites us closer — to engage, examine, and connect.

Mine! is a celebration of affirmation, stitched in wool with no guarantee of outcome — a reminder that the most powerful expressions are often the simplest.

 Note: Hanging on a wall requires small nail pins that can be discreetly hidden.
