Huia Pohutukawa - Original Carved Painting

- Hikurangi Edwards

Hikurangi Edwards is a Māori Artist based in Pōneke / Wellington, New Zealand. Hikurangi intricately hand carves images inspired by her culture into layers of acrylic paint. Hikurangi applies layers of acrylic paint to custom-made framed plyboard & then steadily carves through the layers of paint - exposing the multiple colours layered beneath. The results are textured images rendered in negative relief that accentuates the stunning tonal variations & hand-carved details
