Narrative:
High above the mountains, where the air sharpens and the land lifts into rugged silence, the alpine world reveals beauty and fragility. This painting reflects that tension—vast, forms shaped by time, weather, and ice, standing as quiet witnesses to change.
At home in these high places is the remarkable Kea—the world’s only alpine parrot, known for its intelligence, curiosity, and resilience. Once widespread across Aotearoa, kea were gradually pushed into the harsher alpine regions through habitat loss and human pressure. For many years they were misunderstood and persecuted, their playful nature mistaken for nuisance. Today, they remain nationally endangered, facing ongoing threats from introduced predators and environmental change. Yet, there is hope: through conservation efforts and growing awareness, kea populations are slowly being protected, their presence in the mountains a symbol of both survival and the importance of coexistence.
