He waka eke noa
~ We are all in this together
Literally translated, this whakatauki (proverbial saying) is ‘The canoe in which we all are in without exception’
Metaphorically the waka is on a journey. Under the guidance and following the direction of its leader, the group works together with a shared purpose, with trust in each other, to ensure the success of all.

Amber Smith is a ceramic artist and printmaker honouring her ties to Ngāti Wai through her child. Her words in te Reo Māori and English are wise and up-lifting, giving a beautiful feeling to the art of love, hope and self-worth - a positive message, to gift yourself or another.
Nature within Aotearoa, especially our native bird life, inspires Amber throughout all of her artwork.
Note: The frame shown is made in a virtual setting to give an example of what the print could look like framed.
