Cast Glass Koauau - teal green on a perspex stand

- Mike Cameron

Contemporary Koauau-Flute. Made using cast glass.

Mike Cameron is born & bred in Whangarei, Northland and so has a strong connection to the sea & forest.

The glass represents Tangaroa (god of the sea). Once played, the breath of Mauri (life force) enters the Koauau & makes it sing the sounds of Tawhirimatea (god of wind), across Tangoroa & in the footsteps of Tane. This sound sends messages to our Tuouna (ancestors) & realms beyond our own.

Mike Cameron is an established Multi-Media Artist based in Aotearoa's Northland. Born & raised in Whangārei & working as an artist from his home studio. As an artist, Mike approaches his work with careful planning & integrity - he uses rangahau (research) as the basis for all his artworks
