"ROIMATA," a poignant wall hanging sculpted from reclaimed timber, embodies the profound journey of healing. Named for the Māori word for "tear drop," this piece quietly speaks to the release of emotion and the sacred process of restoration.
The artwork features a blackened finish, achieved through a traditional burning process that deepens the natural grain before being stained. This texture symbolizes the transformative power of fire—representing the endurance of hardship and the strength found in what remains. A powerful guardian for any space, "ROIMATA" serves as a visual reminder of resilience and the beauty that emerges through healing.
The binding at the top symbolizes the strength of our friendships and whānau (family) ties, illustrating how we are all interconnected.
