This original, one-of-a-kind pewter bird artwork is the result of a creative collaboration between Auckland artist Anna Mollekin and Tauranga metal artist, Ninette Kruger.
Are you a New Zealand homeowner, interior designer or office manager searching for unique native New Zealand bird art to adorn your living or working spaces?
Look no further!
Meet Anna and Ninette, two dedicated Kiwi artists who share a profound passion for conservation and the exquisite natural beauty of Aotearoa.
Anna, a digital artist renowned for her intricate graphic art style, has been captivated by the tragic tale of the New Zealand Huia bird.
This now-extinct avian marvel serves as a poignant reminder of the urgent need to safeguard our precious natural world.
Her skillful hands breathe life into the Huia, capturing the bird's once-vivid presence on the New Zealand landscape.
Ninette, a pewter sculptor with a keen eye for detail, used her expertise to bring the Huia back to life in a three-dimensional form.
Her metal art sculpture, hand-embossed in pewter, showcases the Huia's intricate beak and plumage, emphasizing the delicate beauty that is now forever lost...
This one-of-a-kind collaborative artwork serves as a powerful call to action, reminding us of the delicate balance between human progress and nature.
Their creation is not just a tribute to the Huia but also a plea for conservation, inspiring others to join the fight to protect New Zealand's natural environment.
Through art, they hope to rekindle the flames of awareness and action, ensuring that the Huia's story becomes a symbol of hope for a brighter, more sustainable future.
