Taira-Heiria | Limited Edition Giclee Fine Art Print

Number 7 in the “Wāhine in Gold Series “ by artist Josh Kiwikiwi. This ongoing series focuses on what is Polynesian, namely who identify as wāhine Māori, and how can they be represented. 

Embellished in gold Josh respectfully illustrates powerful imagery. Referencing from both the Māori world and other cultures that are intertwined with it, Josh depicts strong wāhine from Aotearoa and the wider ao. 

“Taira-Heiria” embodies all wāhine toa, those who are leaders, pillars, & mothers. She wears her achievements, her knowledge, courage and strength with a proud grace.
