A bold layered bamboo art map of the North Island Central Plateau, exploring the dramatic volcanic calderas, lake depths and mountain forms of this remarkable landscape.
This Matai Gallery XL art map is a stripped-back, sculptural piece celebrating the contrasting volcanic calderas of the North Island Central Plateau. From the depths of mighty Lake Taupō to the heights of Ruapehu, the design focuses on form, contour and natural drama.
With its strong sense of scale and minimal approach, this artwork highlights the power of the region’s volcanic landscape without unnecessary detail. The result is bold, refined and highly sculptural, making it a striking piece for those connected to Taupō, Tongariro, Ruapehu, the Central Plateau or New Zealand’s volcanic heart.
The XL format gives this map impressive presence, allowing the layered caldera forms, lake depth and mountain landscape to be appreciated as a true statement artwork.
Carefully constructed by hand, layer by layer, in our Wairarapa workshop, this sixteen-layer bamboo art map brings depth, texture and impact to a landscape shaped by volcanoes, lakes, mountains and memory.
Choose from a black or white frame to suit your space. Made from layered bamboo ply and framed in FSC pine, each map is carefully finished by hand. Due to the handmade construction and natural materials used, each piece may vary slightly from the image shown, making every map unique.
