Aoraki Rama
Sofia Minson
limited edition museum archival print
583 x 700mm
Prints are created by capturing the original painting as a high resolution digital image. They are then printed using lightfast pigments. Every artwork is titled, numbered with it's unique edition number, dated with the year printed and signed by Sofia.
"Here stands our tallest peak in New Zealand, Aoraki Mt Cook. Ngāi Tahu's sacred mountain is crowned with gold geometric patterns. The Hindu god Raama illuminates the expansive night sky.
The substrate I was working on lent character and direction to "Aoraki Raama." It is fibreglass board, moulded with the deep cracks like gnarled concrete. I had three such boards to work on and all three drew out rugged, rocky, snow covered Aoraki from my imagination."
About the Artist
Sofia Minson
"The joy of expression – big swooping background moves of brush and paint over canvas, then careful respectful strokes for detail, letting the buttery paint slip and slide into the spaces it should fill. To create something visual is a powerful handmade and heartfelt experience.“
