Arielle Walker (Taranaki, Ngāruahine, Ngāpuhi, Pākehā) is a Tāmaki Makaurau-based artist, writer and maker. 

Weaving at the intersections of her Taranaki and Scottish/Irish Pākehā whakapapa, her practice focuses on textile processes and poetic narratives, advocating for the revival, sustenance, and continued innovation of ancestral practices. Contexts that surround this include stories and storying; textile traditions passed down through generations of grandmothers; tension, balance, and weight as material metaphors; the interconnectedness of islands; migration across the swell and pull of the sea; the intrinsic ties of language and land; seasons and celestial cycles; roots and botanical belongings.

In 2024, she completed a PhD at AUT University, where she is currently a Postdoctoral Research Fellow with AUT RAU Textiles Research, Te Kura Toi a Hoahoa School of Art and Design.
