This print showcases a magnificent Maori totem carving, standing tall and proud in the Ohinemutu village of Rotorua, located on the North Island of New Zealand. The vibrant colors and intricate details of this wooden masterpiece are truly awe-inspiring. The Maori people, indigenous to New Zealand, have a rich cultural heritage that is beautifully represented through their art forms. This contemporary totem carving serves as a powerful symbol of their Pacific identity and ethnic roots. Positioned outdoors against the backdrop of the charming village, this artwork stands as a testament to the strong connection between nature and Maori culture.
