| In the evening of September 25, 2018, The Duchess of Sussex attended the opening of the 'Oceania' exhibition at the Royal Academy of Arts in London. 'Oceania' is the first-ever major survey of Oceanic art to be held in the United Kingdom. The Duchess first met artists from New Zealand. Their piece Kiko Moana draws on a long tradition of textile arts among Māori women. The exhibition draws from rich historic ethnographic collections dating from the 18th century to the present, and includes seminal works produced by contemporary artists exploring history, identity and climate change. |
