I've worked in Whangerai and Northlad New Zealand for 15 years. In that time I've created many pieces both large and small.

Whakairo rakau is the Maori art of woodcarving has been a cultural vessel for centuries. The unique designs, and patterns and their meanings tell the tales of Maori history.

Aoatearoa : (Land of the Long Lingering Light)

Hill to hill, valley to valley

Abounding with talismans of land, sea, rivers

Lakes, trees and sky.

This land, criss crossed with spiritual

N E X U S

Evolution incremental

(As pipi and oyster sift brine/build layers of defence)

Is the speed of intuition

The small whispers of truth permeate

The wise woven web

This illusion, MAYA.

Rakau Chronograpy

Life, time, pressure, gravity, rakau (trees, wood) graphs.

These constants as they grow.

My chisels and chainsaw explore

(as a telescope does stars)

Time Past
