Whānau of Light


The art piece represents the whakapapa (genealogy) of light and the beauty in creation. The central koru depicts the union between Tangotango (darkness of night) and Wainui (the ocean) with the four outer quadrants representing their offspring; tama-nui-te-ra (sun), Mārama (moon), whetū (stars), hinātore (phosphorescent light). The whānau of light provides lessons and helps us to make sense of our own journey of self-actualisation, illumination, and collaboration - much like the qualities of Oyster & Moon.
