The record

On the Whāingaroa / Raglan coast, Manu Bay is listed alongside Whale Bay and Indicators as a surf break of national significance in New Zealand’s coastal policy.

The print follows the curve of the shore past dark boulders and green hills. Pale wave bands cross the turquoise water, with the land becoming smaller and flatter in the distance.

What this print shows

I used the pale, approach-like curve as a counterweight to the water. It starts broad, narrows quickly and pulls the eye into the hills. Dark boulders keep land and sea separate, while one flax-like plant places the viewer close to the slope. Houses and surfers are left out; the coastline has enough movement on its own.
