The World is Yours
~ Kei ou ringaringa te ao
The Hamsa (hand) is a sign for protection, blessings, happiness, peace and prosperity. The Piwakawaka is the bird in the hand, representing freedom and joy. In the palm, the koru and kowhaiwhai patterns symbolise new beginnings. The Aroha heart is for the Love that goes with You - The World is Yours.

Printed using archival inks and the highest quality giclée printing process, these works are guaranteed against fading for more than 100 years.

The luxurious 320gsm paper stock is made from 100% cotton using a cold press method, giving it a beautifully soft finish and a natural white surface free from optical brighteners.
Amber Smith is a ceramic artist and printmaker who honours her connection to Ngāti Wai through her child. Inspired by the natural beauty of Aotearoa, especially our native birdlife, her work celebrates te ao Māori and seeks to foster connection, understanding, and respect. Often drawing on whakataukī (proverbs) and waiata (songs), Amber combines te Reo Māori and English to create uplifting works that carry messages of love, hope, and self worth, creating meaningful pieces to gift yourself or someone special.
Note: The frame shown is made in a virtual setting to give an example of what the print could look like framed.
