EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable Maori wood-carving that represents an ancestor. The intricate carving, found on the inside of a tribal meeting house, is now part of the esteemed British Museum's collection. The close-up image allows us to appreciate the craftsmanship and attention to detail in this wooden artifact. Every curve and line has been meticulously carved into the wood, bringing forth a sense of life and power. The fierce expression on the ancestor's face reflects their importance within Maori tribal culture. The vibrant colors used in this carving add depth and richness to the overall composition. It is evident that great care was taken to ensure each hue complements one another harmoniously. This piece serves as a powerful reminder of New Zealand's indigenous heritage and pays homage to its Maori roots. It symbolizes not only an individual but also represents an entire tribe, embodying their history, traditions, and values. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time - connecting with Aotearoa (the Maori name for New Zealand) through artistry that speaks volumes about its people's resilience and cultural identity. Mike Dixon expertly captures every aspect of this extraordinary wood-carving; his lens encapsulates both beauty and significance within this treasured object from another land.
