Arcrylic Painting by Sam Te Tau New Zealand Artist
This painting was inspired from an idea to paint a subject that we here in Aotearoa are familiar with, something that we all can relate to and that is the mighty 'Tane Mahuta', one of the worlds oldest and largest trees.
'Tree of life', a powerfully symbolic metaphor that has been common among the indigenous tribes of the world and also features in the many great religions and spiritual traditions.
The tree surface area represents cultural diversity. Every culture has evolved its own unique individual expression and knowledge over a long period of time.
This diversity has formed the tribes and nations that we all belong to. When placed side by side they combine to form the same 'Tree of life' or tree of humanity.
The weaving of cultural diversity is bringing us back together again, both physically through the merging of genes and mindfully with the sharing of knowledge.
The powerful roots of 'Tane Mahuta' resemble the physical connection to our origins on earth and the mighty trunk and branches are leading us towards the sun which is the spiritual equivalent of the one Creator. And we the leaves of one tree!
Finally, the center of the tree has an unfolding spiral that is the heart or common soul of man, sharing its vibrant strength for the good of all.
Maybe this is our destiny, unified in mind, body and soul.
