Kete
1999, Acrylic on Canvas
This painting was one of twenty finalists in the 1999 Hawke's
Bay
Telecom Art Awards. Kete in Maori, is a basket or bag, it also
is a womb.
On the painting is written a Maori proverb, Nau te rourou, naku
te rourou
ka ora te manuwhiri, which means "With your food basket and my
food basket the guests will have enough." (May each contribute.)
Sold to private collection
