About this print
Nā Onekea
This design pays tribute to the one (sands) from which we are all born. The term one comes from the expression one hānau, which literally translates to “birth sands” and roughly means “birthplace.” The artwork featured in this design originates from a collection of line drawings of ʻulu (breadfruit). These drawings consist of a single, uninterrupted line that outlines the ʻulu. This technique is known as "line art." Line art has become increasingly popular for its ability to simplify complex subjects by highlighting only the essentials.
The ʻulu fruit is not only a valuable and nurturing food source, but the entire plant can be utilized for various purposes. The trunk of the ʻulu tree has been used to provide wood for canoes, surfboards, musical instruments, and more. Its sap was employed as glue on cloth for catching birds and for waterproofing materials. Additionally, this plant has medicinal uses, such as treating ear infections, headaches, and even broken bones. With its multiple uses, the ʻulu tree has become a staple in Hawaiʻi.
