Our Hopes and Dreams - Black & White

Our Hopes and Dreams - Black & White

Don’t go ahead of me or walk behind me, but stand here by my side. Let us share our hopes and dreams.

~ Kaua e whai mai kei mua rānei, engari tū mai ki tōku taha kia tiritiria ā tātou wawata me ngā moemoea

These two tui are side by side, flying together, with a shared vision of their lives ahead. This is a print that speaks of a love that’s steady and sure. Aroha, loyalty, partnership - walking side by side, and choosing each other every day.

A beautiful piece for those who are walking side by side through life.

Inspired by the waiata 'Kaua e Whai Mai' by Rawiri Henare with te reo Māori translation by Katerina Mataira.
