Te Hoahoa

Mō Great Blue Hole Hei kakī

He hei kakī a Great Blue Hole i whakaawea e te rua hōhonu moana o taua ingoa anō i Belize. Ka whakawhiti te hoahoa i tētahi horanuku māori nui hei āhua whakairo ka taea te mau. Ka hikitia ngā wāhanga whakarewa paparanga ki runga i ngā waea o ngā roa rerekē hei hanga i te kaha ā-ahu me te hōhonutanga. I whakamahia te kani, te whakarewa, te whakanako tohu (enamel), te whakanoho kōhatu, te patu whakairo me te repousse hei hanga i ngā āhua me ngā kakano o te mata. E 130 mm te whānui o te hei kakī, e 15 mm te hōhonu, e 75 mm te teitei, me tētahi aho peara e 450 mm te roa. Mā te nekehanga o te tinana ka neke te māramatanga puta noa i ngā paparanga.

Te Whakamihi

Mō te A' Design Award Parahi

Ko Great Blue Hole Hei kakī te toa o te A' Design Award Parahi, he whakaaetanga tino whai mana e hoatu ana ki ngā hoahoa kōeke e tohua ana mā te auaha, te mahi mōhio me te whakaaro hōhonu. Ko ngā toa Parahi he mahi pukenga e rite ana, he auaha mīharo, e whakatūturu ana i te wheako nui, te whakaaro me te mōhio-ā-ringa o ā rātou kaihoahoa. E tūmanakohia ana ko Great Blue Hole Hei kakī he taonga whakanuia, whakamīharotia, aroha nui, he ngaio, he auaha hoki. Ko tēnei hoahoa i toa i te Parahi e whakauru ana i ngā tikanga pai rawa i te toi, te pūtaiao, te hoahoa me te hangarau, ā, he tino mīharo ki ngā taipitopito. Ka whakatutuki a Great Blue Hole Hei kakī i ngā hiahia, ka pā ki ngā hiahia, ka whakaoho i ngā kare-ā-roto, ā, ka kume i te pākiki.

Āhuatanga Motuhake
This piece reinterprets a monumental marine formation as a wearable sculptural structure through layered metal construction and dimensional assembly. Its distinction lies in translating vast geological space into an intimate bodily dimension, where organic irregularity is balanced with controlled craftsmanship to create a tactile landscape experience.

Hangarau Whakanao
This work involved selecting materials corresponding to the site's visual and spatial characteristics and conducting extensive texture studies. Test pieces were produced to experiment with varied surface treatments and forms. To achieve the desired atmosphere within a limited scale, appropriate techniques were carefully selected. In addition to piecing and sawing, casting, enameling, stone setting, chasing, and repousse were employed. Components were elevated using wires of varying lengths to create dimensional volume and layered depth.
Wero Hoahoa
The primary challenge was developing a structural system capable of integrating diverse elements into a cohesive form. To achieve the intended atmosphere, careful planning was required for stone placement, setting techniques, and layering. Establishing the correct order of fabrication was critical. Through extensive trial and error, I refined the composition so that each element could coexist harmoniously while retaining its individual presence.
Rangahau
This project represents a research process aimed at translating distinctive natural landscapes and geological formations into the form of jewelry. Through the harmonious arrangement of diverse materials and techniques, I experimented to determine the optimal color relationships, proportions, and structural balance that could effectively convey the site's atmosphere and defining characteristics. The research also explored multiple approaches to articulating organic forms within a controlled metal framework, seeking methods to express natural irregularity with clarity and precision.
Whakaaweawe
Inspired by the Great Blue Hole in Belize, I was drawn to its ultramarine depth and the diverse ecosystems surrounding it. Through visual research and material experimentation, I sought not only to extract its visual characteristics but also to convey the site's atmosphere and sense of mystery. By combining various materials and metalworking techniques, I harmoniously translated a distant, life filled marine environment into an intimate wearable scale.
Roanga o te Kaupapa
The project started in August 2018 in New York, USA, and was completed in May 2019.
Rerenga Mahi
Due to its layered colors and condensed elements, the piece offers tactile detail and visual richness to both wearer and viewer. As the body moves, shifting light and depth create subtle variations in perception, inviting closer observation. By bringing a distant landscape into intimate proximity, the work provides a subtle sense of refreshment.
