Maori Meeting House Entrance Under Autumn Sky

by Alice Peterson

Amber sodium light washes over the intricate black carvings of a Maori meeting house entrance, standing beneath a glass-roofed arcade near Auckland's Wynyard Quarter. Deep autumn leaves in burnt orange and russet hues drift across the polished stone floor, against the dark timber of the wharenui. Dramatic, heavy clouds press low against the glass ceiling, their dark gray forms silhouetted against the fading twilight. The carved koru patterns catch the warm glow, highlighting the deep relief of the wood grain. To the right, modern steel beams of the arcade frame the traditional structure, while the city lights of the district begin to pulse in the background. A reflection of the swirling clouds stretches across the wet pavement at the base of the carved doorframe.
