This kete whakairo has been created using harakeke (flax) harvested from Te Kāreti Kōhine o Wairau/Marlborough Girls’ College in Blenheim. The flax has been boiled and dyed to preserve it and has been created in the style of takitahi with a striped alternating diagonal effect. The colour used was forest green. Ngā Ara is simply in reference to the many paths.
This piece is currently on display at The Karaka Kitchen.
Toi size (approximate):
Height: 16 cm
Width: 38 cm
Tungi ate ururua, kia tupu whakaritorito te tupu o te harakeke.
Clear away the undergrowth so the new shoots of the harakeke can spring up.
