Cora-Allan Wickliffe is a multidisciplinary artist of Māori and Niue descent, originally from Waitakere. In recent years her practice has focused on her efforts to revive the art form of Hiapo. Prior to this, she completed her Masters in Visual Art and Design in Performance from AUT (2013), also receiving an AUT Postgraduate Deans award. Her work is a part of major collections including Te Papa Tongarewa, Auckland War Memorial Museum and the Wallace Arts Trust.
Through the remembrance of her grandfather, Cora-Allan crafts a hiapo, the traditional art of Niuean barkcloth, for the opening of the exhibition Moana Legacy at Tautai Gallery in Auckland.
