Garry Fairbrother
The artist behind this creationGarry has had a passion for discovering pounamu since he was very young, at a time when only a small number of people were carving professionally. Born and bred just outside of Hokitika - the heart of New Zealand’s jade territory - Garry’s backyard was a very special place where spectacular and rare pieces of pounamu could be found. In his 30-year career to date, Garry’s artistic imagination and technical skills have combined to create some magical works of art, and his love for this valued stone is showcased through his highly regarded carvings.A fundamental symbol in Māori art, the koru symbolises life and creation, with its fluid circular shape conveying the idea of everlastingness.
The Koru
The koru is a beloved symbol throughout Aotearoa, seen painted on tipuna (meeting houses), waka (canoes), in traditional Tā moko (Māori tattooing) and on wood and greenstone carvings. Pounamu artists use the koru pattern in many different ways; often introducing it as surface-etching or detail into other forms and shapes. It is though to depict new beginnings, life and hope.Discover more
