Whakatipu Waimāori / Lake Wakatipu
This framed artwork captures the form of Lake Wakatipu (Whakatipu Waimāori) through a minimalist design made from plaster and twine. The layered grey surface provides depth, while the central woven shape outlines the lake’s contours with fine, deliberate detail. Each strand of twine is placed by hand, a process that highlights craftsmanship and the slow rhythm of making. The plaster base adds texture and dimension, creating subtle tonal shifts as the light changes.
Set within a natural wood frame, the work combines raw material presence with considered design. Its clean lines and tactile surface invite close viewing, while its simplicity allows it to anchor a space without overwhelming it. The piece integrates easily into both contemporary and classic interiors, offering a statement that celebrates form, material, and skilled craftsmanship.
