Aroha by Robert Ellis

Ellis says "The background of the print is a compilation of cartographic images using city street maps; the selection was broadly based on ideas relating to identification, location and destination. Superimposed on this are letters making up the Maori word AROHA [ love, affection, compassion]. The five pairs of hands spell out the individual letters of AROHA using an elementary alphabetical sign language."
