Koru No. 1 - Limited Edition of 10 Artwork

"The koru (Māori for "loop or coil") is a spiral shape based on the appearance of a new unfurling silver fern frond. It is an integral symbol in Māori art, carving, and tattooing, where it symbolizes new life, growth, strength, and peace" It is emblematic of the power of the assimilation of new ideas, new ways of doing things, and how that fosters change and new growth, and an awakening of a new way. About synergy, and how the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Its shape "conveys the idea of perpetual movement" The New Zealand koru is a symbol you’ll see everywhere from the Air NZ logo and on tattoos to art galleries and Maraes. So what does it mean? "Arguably the most important place that you’ll see a koru is while out in New Zealand’s great outdoors – perhaps on a nature tour. The koru is a stylized symbol of a fern, which is one of the country’s most iconic plant species. As a fern is a young and vibrant example of our flora, it has come to symbolize growth, strength, and new life. The word itself means ‘loop’ in Maori, and as the fern unfurls, it also has connotations with constant movement and growth, all the while remaining connected to one original point. You’ll often see the koru depicted in jewellery made in New Zealand – specifically which are carved from pounamu (greenstone) or even bone. When given as a gift, the koru symbolizes the start of a new relationship, or a new phase in a relationship, as it suggests growth, harmony, and new beginnings." I wanted to do something that was at once contemporary and traditional, that reflects the modern culture in Aotearoa, New Zealand.

Chromoluxe Reproductions: (Limited edition of 10 only for any of my images). Chromoluxe means two things: Durability and Definition. This exclusive edition of 10 images will be created using the new Chromoluxe aluminum printing technique for high-quality large format art. The colors leap from the surface to produce vibrant melodious images. Your investment will retain its birth-date energy and integrity. You will appreciate this stunningly vital picture that is so spirited it will appear to levitate off any wall. The Chromoluxe sublimation technique means that the image is embossed into the slimline metal sheet that has a hanging frame on the back so that it sits out from the wall -by a couple of inches. This means that your rare edition print will seem to “float” just in from of the wall. You won’t need to make a separate payment for framing or worry about breakable glass and expensive heavy frames to carry (if you move to a new house). This print will be scratch-resistant, durable, and will retain the image’s vibrancy ~for a lifetime. This is 21st-century printing, high definition and literally, state-of-the-art. Very few places in the world can produce an image of this size, in this format. Not only will you have a collectible work of art, but it will be rendered in the cutting-edge format. Durable, appreciable, and gallery-quality. Side on, the print appears as a slip sheet of aluminum, from the front, the colors are glossy and intensely vivid. The panel has smoothed corners and looks sleek and elegant. (You can opt for a matte finish if you prefer). Your beautiful art will be carefully packaged in a custom-made box with plenty of protection for shipping. Shipping is tracked and signed for as standard. Takes approximately three weeks to get ready to ship. *(The estimated weight is based on Canvas Gallery Wrap 1.5" deep with 1 Layer of Resin).
