Today was our fourth session for art and will be our last session since we are rotating next week. For our last session of art we finished of our wakahuia (wakahuia is special jewelry box) drawings. We learnt that there is two different types of wakahuia which is the traditional one and the contemporary one. The traditional wakahuia includes feathers from the huia birds and has more cultural Maori patterns. It also consist carving on it.The contemporary is the opposite. It has no feathers from the huia bird has no carving on it. It has less details and patterns. My wakahuia drawing above has two different parts to it. The drawing of lid is at the bottom and my patterns are on the top. A big thank you to Mrs Telefoni for teaching us last term and a bit of this term.
