The artworks are presented as one connected art movement and, much like Māori culture itself, this is nuanced, vibrant and diverse. This then connects to the terrestrial realm of humankind, Ira Tangata. The Māori creation story speaks of our celestial origins, understood as the realm of the gods or Ira Atua. The exhibition is framed by the Māori creation narrative, making way for a new mode of experience. Spanning 70 years with work by more than 100 artists, the exhibition presents contemporary Māori art as standing tall – toi tū – and healthy – toi ora – while reinforcing the wisdom and ideas that empower Māori and Indigenous ways of knowing. Distinct from the other art movements of Aotearoa New Zealand, contemporary Māori art occupies an unrivalled position in engaging with cultural histories and the role of Māori knowledge, and continues to invigorate discussions about identity and place.

The header appears in line with the album tracks, so customizing the font will be especially helpful for contrast. This forum post has some great tips on using the sub-grouping header. With the help of a virtual tag, there are endless possibilities. MusicBee already puts a blank line between different discs of the same album, but you could use this field to add disc titles, group items by work or composer, and so on. The sub-grouping header is used to group tracks within an album. You can also customize the font for the headers, separately for each side. (For instance, choosing 'Album Artist' on the left and 'Album' on the right would result in a new header for each album artist, and also for each album.) If you assign something to both, MusicBee will display a new header for a change in either of the criteria. You can choose to have titles on the left side of the header, the right side, or both.
