Ātaahua, I will be sharing your pūrākau with my tamariki. They will be inspired in more ways than one. Thank you

Polynesian people have one of the most beautiful creation myths I have witnessed ... Thank you very much for your art, my heart was deeply touched. Also knowing about the book "Sand talk" by Tyson Yunkaporta makes your sand art even more fitting in this context. At least this was one thought I had.

So beautiful! Thank you for your art and story telling!

Thank you for sharing this..this definitely unlocked a core memory of me watching this as a young kid 🥺

Aue te aroha a Ranginui raua ko Papatuanuku!💚💛💕

Such a magical storytelling and art

Beautiful art work my brother. Thank you for sharing your amazing talent. Blended into the wonderful creation story of the Atua.

I remember learning about this when i was only around 6 years old in school. Its so refreshing to learn about it all over again :)

i'm just proud to say i'm apart of the race that made this mythology, Ka pai : )

Absolutely amazing job telling this story of Ranginui and papatūānuku ❤

What a Wonderful Artistic Gift you have from God.

Maori mythology is something left over from the infancy their intelligence. Take for example the myth of the slowing down of the sun. In the days of old Tamanuiterā, the sun, used to move through the sky at much too fast a pace for humanity to complete all their days' chores leaving long, cold nights that lasted for many hours while Tamanuiterā slept. Māui and his brothers journeyed to Tamanuiterā's sleeping pit with a large rope, which in some tellings was made from their sister Hina's hair. The brothers fashioned the rope into a noose or net, and in doing so "discovered the mode of plaiting flax into stout square-shaped ropes, (tuamaka); and the manner of plaiting flat ropes, (paharahara); and of spinning round ropes", which when Tamanuiterā awoke found himself caught in. Using a patu made from the jawbone of their grandmother, Murirangawhenua, Māui beat the sun into agreeing to slow down and give the world more time during the day. So you see if that had not happened McDonald´s would only be serving breakfast.

Man, its a shame they genocided the large bird children of the forest i would have loved to have met a moa. They were pretty stink to the patupaiarehe too, stole tatoos from the spirit world, stole fire, treated the sun like crap. Actually they were not the kindest to nature and the spirits, i dont think the land likes anyone here anymore so why we all acting like we own the place and others dont belong? kindof disgusting, i feel sorry for nature and the spirits here
