This framed tauira is created using harakeke (flax) harvested from the Taylor River in Blenheim. The harakeke has been boiled and dyed (orange) to preserve it, and was saved from the off-cuts of a kete. Poro means to be cut off or be trimmed, and Karaka refers to the colour orange. A raw weave, which in its simplicity is beautiful.
Frame size:
Height: 39 cm
Width: 31 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.
