In collaboration with Maori cultural artist Sam Mangakahia, Kala presents “The Voyage Collection”— 3 unique pieces of native Maori artwork. Sam has been telling stories through his art for 13 years and has created over 450 custom art pieces that each have a story. Each of the 3 designs/stories focus on specific human experiences we all share in common — Unity, Courage and Guidance— designed with natural elements that speak powerfully to these experiences. The artwork is laser-etched on mahogany and each ukulele comes with a personalized Voyage Collection gig bag, and story card hang tag telling the unique message of each piece of art.
COURAGE: Within this wave are symbols of courage and strength.
From the time of birth, you are constantly facing new opportunities and trials. It takes courage to face new challenges and hardships. But as you utilize the strength within yourself and your ancestors, you can overcome these challenges. Throughout this journey of discovery, you will gain confidence in yourself.
