Kiaora! My name is Harete.
I started using this platform on Feb 16th 2024. I love writing and perhaps Medium will become a gathering of art, images and words I've created over 25 + years. I hope there is something here for you.
All art and photos are my own. All writing is AI free.
Wondering Earth is my brand I've used for 10+ years. It expresses my curiosity with nature and with life.
This image is of harakeke (phormium tenax) flowers that I use often in my art. Harakeke is one of our traditional weaving materials I use to make paper (leaves) and dyes (flowers, seedpods, stalks, leaves, roots). You will see it often alongside my writings.
