Taupō Carvings Print

The Ngatoroirangi Rock Carving on Lake Taupō is one of New Zealand’s most remarkable contemporary Māori artworks. Towering 14 metres above the water, it draws visitors from across the North Island to admire its scale and detail. In 1976, master carver Matahi Whakataka-Brightwell envisioned the tattooed face of Ngatoroirangi while paddling past a rock alcove, fulfilling his grandmother’s wish to create a lasting connection to their ancestors. Over four years, Matahi and a team of artists transformed the rock face into a masterpiece, with surrounding carvings depicting tupuna (ancestors) and kaitiaki (guardians) central to the stories of the local iwi. This print captures the grandeur, history, and cultural significance of the Mine Bay carvings, bringing a piece of Taupō’s heritage into your home. Fine Art travel poster print designed by local New Zealand artist Tiffany Consumi. Tiffany originates from France but traded croissants for Kiwis (the fruit and the people) when she arrived in New Zealand in 2017. Armed with a backpack and a dream, she fell head over hiking boots for this breath-taking country - and for a certain local boy. Fast forward to today, she's now raising two little adventurers in beautiful Papamoa, Tauranga. Inspired by New Zealand’s stunning landscapes and vibrant culture, she creates travel posters that celebrate the magic of this amazing country. Each piece is a love letter to her favourite spots, from snowy peaks to sandy beaches. Her art is all about capturing the joy of exploring, the warmth of happy memories, and the wonder of adventure.
