your experience

Gallipoli: The Scale of Our War Exhibition at the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa is an immersive, moving experience that takes visitors on a cinematic journey through WWI through the eyes and words of eight ordinary New Zealanders. This exhibition is a collaboration between multi-Academy Award winners at Wētā Workshop and the curators at Te Papa, with the goal of creating a deeply emotional and empathic experience of war in a museum context. The exhibition features hyper-realistic, larger-than-life sculptures of the eight characters, each one captured in a moment of time and crafted with meticulous attention to detail. As guests move through the exhibition space, they encounter these sculptures and their stories, immersing themselves in the sights, sounds, and sensations of war. Honor the 2,779 Kiwis who lost their lives and the many others forever scarred by this defining event.
