Statement

This image is an interpretation of my wonderings about how our bodies are a human vessel for our wairua, our whakapapa, and our connection to our ancestors. A vessel that embodies the idea that we are people through other people, and all that they represent in terms of bodies of knowledge and experience. My body is a vessel that connects me to my people; to my past, my present, and my future.
