Tangaroa and Ngapuhi.

This is my major body of work. The brief for this peice was to research and develop a 3 Dimensional body of work of a self determined nature. We were encouraged to not only build apon previous work that we had done but also take that work to a higher level. This is my major piece which was carved out of totara and has 3 narratives. The head speaks of Tangaroa, the body speaks of taniwha in Ngapuhi and the 3 waves at the bottom speak about the waves that Nukutawhiti returned with to Aotearoa.
