Waiata o te whenua - Serpentinite collection
The markings in this serpentinite are truly breathtaking. Veins of quartz run through it like tears in the stone, telling the story of its creation.
They remind us where these taonga come from: forged deep within the earth and slowly pushed to the surface as tectonic plates shift beneath us.
It’s a process that reveals extraordinary beauty, born from the same immense forces that can also be frightening.
As the world continues to shift - not only beneath our feet, but in the choices made by those in positions of power - this kōhatu feels like a quiet call to remember what truly sustains us.
At a time when too many world leaders fail to honour or protect the very planet that gives us life, these ancient stones remind us that Papatūānuku endures beyond politics.
They ask us to look deeper, to tread more gently, and to remember that the earth is not simply a resource to be consumed, but a living ancestor deserving of our respect.
A quiet reminder that the earth’s power creates as much as it transforms.
