Description: Painting – Native tree pigments on handmade Harakeke paper
Te Kore, the space before form, before the first light of dawn. A space of potential and possibility before Te Ata Pūao. Te Kore Te Whiwhia is a space void of material things, a space of pure possibility. A place of reflection and incubation from which light and life will eventually emerge.
Tohu: The circle/koru/spiral has always been present in her work and Te Kōre is a place of healing Te Harete has been working with for many years. Te Ao Māori has some beautiful healing pathways, and this space of Te Kore is one of them.
She loves that these works are 100% native. This has been a journey for her over the past five years – to create work that at any time can be returned to the earth. Working with our natives is a reminder of what was once here.
Reclaiming our reo through our trees – their beauty, healing for the land, and
people and their colour!
Materials: Native tree coloured pigments – Harakeke flowers, Harakeke pods, Koromiko, Toatoa, handmade Harakeke paper
Dimensions: Approx. 500 X 500 mm
Special Note: Preferred installation, to hang with magnets
