ULU ʻŌHIʻA
Gatherer of the mist, the ʻōhiʻa drinks from the shifting veils of the forest, catching water that dances in the air. The ʻōhiʻa dances too, swaying in the wind as it stretches its branches gracefully into the sky.
In hula tradition, ʻōhiʻa is entwined with ceremony. Its divine guardians, Kūkaʻōhiʻalaka and Hinaʻūluʻōhiʻa, safeguards its growth. Kūkaʻōhiʻalaka strengthens, while Hinaʻūluʻōhiʻa nurtures. As hula practitioners offer two blossoms in reverence, this pattern echoes that duality, honoring the elemental forces that allow inspiration to take root and flourish.
Ulu ʻŌhiʻa is the emergence of life and inspiration in motion. Like the ʻōhiʻa bursting forth at the muʻo stage, when its buds swell and prepare to bloom, this design by Manaola celebrates the moment of transformation, the moment when potential is realized. From the micro to the macro, it captures the animation of life, the energy of creation, and the blossoming of inspiration in movement. Like the vivacious water cycles of the forest, Ulu ʻŌhiʻa represents the invocation and transmission of forest animation.
Fanciful and expressive, Ulu ʻŌhiʻa is alive with movement and energy that guide creativity. It speaks to our ability to receive and transmit inspiration and endlessly unfold into our next era. Through Ulu ʻŌhiʻa, we are reminded that inspiration doesn’t wait, it ignites at the centerline of purpose and divine intention where dreams can manifest.
