L.I: To create my own kowhaiwhai pattern and to tell others about Tanerore.
Today I have been working on this DLO. The kowhaiwhai pattern is part of the activity that I have been doing, It represents the love of nature and the air that waves through aotearoa. Tanerore the son of Tama-nui-te-ra and is the role of glistening air as he performs a haka for his mother Hine-raumati. Tanerore is the re presenter of the hot sun. Moari suspect that when the sun is shinning and really hot, then you can see Tanerore doing the haka for his mother. As the air shines and waves it joins memories of quaver hand actions.
Tēnā koe Heavenly, this is Elle from the Summer Learning Journey team.
ReplyDeleteYou have done an amazing job on your kowhaiwhai pattern - tino pai! I really like that your artwork represents the love of nature and the flow of air through Aotearoa. This is a very thoughtful meaning and I can definitely see it in your design. I also really like that you’ve used such bold colours and put so much care into the detail!
Thank you for sharing the story of Tānerore and how your kowhaiwhai pattern reflects the narrative. What was your favourite part about creating your pattern and what did you find the most inspiring or interesting about the story of Tānerore?
Ka pai and keep up the great work Heavenly! It is awesome to see you so active in the Summer Learning Journey!

My favourite part about creating this pattern was that I got to also got the opportunity to think about what they how should I put them in place, whats the meaning of it and what the kowhaiwhai pattern would look like with colours.
