Waihorotiu

Waihorotiu  - Original Carved Painting | Hikurangi Edwards

Hikurangi Edwards showcases master craftsmanship and a deep connection to customary narrative in his striking artwork, Waihorotiu - Original Carved Painting. 

This circular piece features intricately hand-carved details that form a continuous, fluid web of golden koru and kōwhaiwhai patterns.

The elegant kōwhaiwhai motifs are elevated against a vibrant, deeply recessed red background, creating an incredible sense of depth and movement that speaks to the flowing nature of water.

Balancing traditional Māori carving techniques with a sophisticated contemporary presence, this powerful taonga honours ancestral lineages and natural environments. 

This exceptional work stands as a beautiful celebration of cultural identity, bringing an commanding, grounding energy to any modern space.
