Hineteiwaiwa.

Kōkōwai on paper.

Kōkōwai sourced from Tūhourangi whenua, Maunga Kākaramea.

This work depicts Hineteiwaiwa, atua of raranga (weaving) and childbirth, shown in the act of giving birth. She is represented as both creator and vessel, embodying the sacred relationship between raranga, childbirth and the continuity of life.

Painted using kōkōwai, the work is materially grounded in whenua and ancestral practice.
