Kowhaiwhai is a form of Maori art that represents a story.
First, I researched about someone called Tanerore. Tanerore has something to do with shimmering air. People in Maori performances will shake their hands to represent the shimmering air action.
Next, I watched a video that showed people using the shimmering air action in a Maori Dance.
The kowhaiwhai I made is meant to represent the waves at the beach. I thought that people go to the beach during summer so I chose to represent waves.
This activity opened up my imagination a bit because I had to think of something summer related that I could represent using kowhaiwhai.
