Naku | Limited Edition Giclee Fine Art Print

“Naku” - The fourth illustration of "The Wāhine in Gold Series"

“Naku” is a tribute to the strength, resilience, and spirit of wāhine across Te Moana Nui a Kiwa. Inspired by the great ocean voyages of Pacific ancestors, the work honours those who navigated vast waters guided by the stars, whakapapa, and the pursuit of new beginnings for future generations.

Gold detailing throughout the piece symbolises hope, resilience, and the sacredness of these journeys, while her presence reflects the enduring connection between Pacific peoples, culture, and identity. “Naku” embodies both the strength of the Moana and the legacies carried through migration, storytelling, and whānaungatanga.

Inspired by Josh Kiwikiwi’s travels to Rarotonga and the deep sense of connection felt across the Pacific, the work reflects on the courage of those who journeyed from Hawaiki in search of new homes, shaping the many hapū and iwi of Aotearoa today.
