Patiki by Davina Warman
Australia
This design is based off a traditional Maori Kowhaiwha pattern. These decorative patterns are used for enhancing a story, usually found on the rafters of the Maori meeting houses. The pattern I have used (Patiki ) is a symbol of hospitality, and the wording (Whakamanuhiri ) means \'to entertain as a guest, be welcoming and hospitable\'. The traditional colours of Black Red and White are always used for these type of patterns.
