2020 Artwork

 These are my designs that I made for the school Art Tour. These designs mostly symbolises the signs of respect but some of them symbolises the joy of where the art comes from.

These design/patterns are from New Zealand, Niue, Samoa, Tonga and the Cook Islands

the designs are called Raperape from the Maori Culture, the Hiapo Bark Cloth from Niue, the Fa'a lau ulu the bread fruit leaf design from Samoa, The Ngatu design as what the Tongans call ci from Tonga and the Tivaevae design used for mat quilts from the Cook Islands.

The Raperape symbolises going towards the elvolving future I chose it because I'm going towards the future of being a Year 7. The Hiapo designs symbolises the peace in Niue. The Fa'a lau ulu design is the intellegence and strength in Samoa. The Ngatu Designs are what we call fala in tonga to lay on the ground at church for weddings, funerals and birthdays. The Tivaevae mat quilts symbolises the savageness in cook islands it is what they sell in when their is a guest coming over.
