EXPLORING THE INNATE CONNECTION BETWEEN TAMARIKI & NATURE
Taonga Collection
Māori regard land, soil and water as taonga (treasures). Our tamariki will become the kaitiaki (guardians) of these taonga. Human beings and Mother Earth are intertwined on every level, not just the physical. Loosely woven brushstrokes symbolise this connection and disperse off the canvas, into the Universe beyond.
