A tribute to Papatuanuku, the sacred foundation from which life begins. This Mahi Toi honours the deep connection between people and whenua, reminding us that we are not separate f rom the land, but a part of it. The flowing patterns represent the rivers, mountains, forests, and life-giving energies that nourish and sustain us. The colours on this piece inspired by "Pounamu" symbolise growth, stability, abundance, and the enduring strength of nature. Papatuānuku carries the stories of our ancestors beneath our feet and provides the foundation upon which future generations will stand. This piece serves as a reminder to remain grounded in who we are, connected to our roots, and grateful for the gifts of the natural world. Show more
