Description
ChromaLuxe Metal Print
Mōunga Taranaki photographed during Puanga/Matariki – Māori New Year, in Taranaki, Aotearoa – New Zealand featuring the two brightest stars in the night sky, Sirius and Canopus. Captured on the riverbed of the Hangataahua awa – Stony River, Okato.
To the lower left of the Mōunga is Sirius also known as ‘The Dog Star’ and part of the ‘Canis Major’ constellation. I’ve learned the Māori name for this star is Takurua and also Tautahi. The constellation is Kāhui Takurua. The second brightest star (even though they look similar in strength here) is Canopus, known as Paepaepoto and also called Autahi, Aotahi as well as Atutahi.
This image was taken as a long exposure, 90 minutes before sunrise. The magnificence of our taiao (environment/natural world) was awe inspiring and refreshing with a windless yet chilly temperature of just a few degrees celsius. I feel deeply connected to this river which is part of our Taranaki Iwi rohe (area/boundary). You will see so much more detail in the final artwork which shows glimpses of the water flowing in the foreground.
