Voyager

"The waka and crew had the provisions and skills to make the many journeys throughout the Pacific, in a sense the waka was similar to a spaceship, it was the transport but also the life-pod that sustained them. It carried all it needed for the voyage." fat-spatula.co.nz/product/voya...

Painting of a locust in a suit running through Napier City

β€œThat time the locust men ran through Napier”

This painting was based off a dream I had which featured locust men in suits running about. A bit of googling told me that locusts in mythology symbolise destruction as well as renewal. fat-spatula.co.nz/product/that...
