Te Rerenga Wairua: Leaping Off Place of Spirits

 

“This photo is from our class visit to the northwestern-most point of New Zealand, where the local iwi (iwi=Māori tribe) believe the spirits of their deceased pass on to the next world. The spirituality of Te Rerenga Wairua deeply moved me as I drew my own connections to this sacred place.”
