About


Far from land, two solitary friends – albatross and whale – meet to dance and play: Ko te aroha e kōtuitui nei i a tātou. Koia te wāhi o waenganui. Ko te hau i raro i te parihau o te toroa. Ko te moana e kau nei te tohorā Koia te huarahi me te whīkoi Koia ko te tīmatanga, koia hoki ko te mutunga o te haerenga. It is love that connects us all. It is the space between. The wind under the wing of the albatross. The ocean in which the whale swims. It is the pathway and it is the walking. It is the beginning and it is the journey’s end.
