Ngā Tae i Tuku
NZ$0.00
The natural colours of pīngao, kiekie and tānekaha are gifted to us from Tangaroa and Tānemahuta. Under the guidance of Hine-te-iwaiwa the stitches of this tukutuku bind the artists together within Te Whare Pora.
The multi-directional flow of the poutama ascending in the centre and the roimata toroa descending on the left-hand side are balanced by affluence. This is represented by the pātiki depicting the collective transfer of knowledge that flows amongst us in Tai o Hī Tai o Hā and is supported within the foundational pou of Te Whare Tapu o Ngāpuhi.
