A layered bamboo art map of Kāpiti, celebrating the island sanctuary, coastal towns and much-loved shoreline of the lower North Island.
This Matai Gallery medium art map captures Kāpiti Island and the surrounding Kāpiti Coast, including Raumati, Paraparaumu and Waikanae Beach. With the island sanctuary sitting proudly offshore and the coastal communities shown in detail, this piece celebrates a landscape deeply connected to home, holidays, fishing, beach walks and local memory.
The Tarapunga Reef will be familiar to local anglers, while the Rauoterangi Channel adds depth and meaning to the waters between the island and the mainland. Roads are marked across the mainland, including the Kāpiti Expressway, making this map especially personal for those who know the area well.
Carefully constructed by hand, layer by layer, in our Wairarapa workshop, this six-layer bamboo art map brings texture, warmth and presence to a landscape shaped by island, coast, community and connection.
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.
