"I live in the country and sometimes go for night walks.
There is a lot of quiet and also a lot of noise if you really listen. In moonlight the night seems to shine in monochrome.
When it is really dark all my senses are on high alert.
The sounds and scent of the night shimmer.

Nocturnal is a celebration of
The bright and sparkling night
The clear and shining night
The noise and quiet of the night ...... a lot goes on in the dark hours.

The Ruru, a creature of the night, sits on a farm post, carved by a farmer, weathered by time. It is bright and alert.

The background landscape is representative of NZ, it could be anywhere in NZ but I did feature Mt. Taranaki as the background mountain as seen from the west.

Nocturnal is a celebration of the night in the spirit of a party or a jubilee. The hanging shapes and patterns represent homemade party decorations, made from what is around. The stars are inspired by the stars on the NZ flag and the 8 pointed star shape is from the United Tribes Flag. The diamonds are inspired by Māori patterns, one on the ground is woven from flax. The foil represents old tinfoil milk bottle tops, flattened and hanging from string to catch the light.
