Poutama

This painting, on unstretched canvas by Toi Te Rito Maihi explores the various designs and patterns found within raranga or weaving. By using bold colour and design it pays tribute to the knowledge and practice of customary Maori weaving, with the blades of the harakeke flax plant as the central motif.
