Chapel for Mother Aubert

Location
Wellington

Like Mother Aubert herself, this chapel is quiet, demure and unassuming, yet capable of packing a sizable punch of singular purpose. A plain brick external casing encloses a serene and simple space, furnished with minimal detailing – delicate coloured glass windows, a peaceful outlook and a beautiful hewn slab of natural stone – as a fitting and final memorial to a woman whose life was animated by rongoā and compassion.
