 The greeting between two cultures.  A first for them.   I try to imagine what that would have been like.  The beautiful feeling, the Essence of the Hongi.  Truth of the moment.

I am a jeweller, so this up scaling of work is quite different than being at the workbench.  Making figures in netting, a hard, sharp material, made to look soft, ethereal has its challenges.

Inspiration comes from the past.  The whispers, restrictions and reflections.
