Alive with fluid green movement, this work listens deeply to the whenua’s pulse. Each mark hums with ancestral vibration, echoing the invisible sound waves that shape land and body alike. Through layered gesture and shifting tone, the surface becomes a living field of resonance – an embodied act of hearing through the earth.
