Description

Own a piece of history. The Hawaiian Priest, Hiva Hiva, from the Rising from the Ashes – Spirit of Aloha collection by world-renowned artist Dale Zarrella, is a gorgeous, one-of-a-kind work of art. This exceptional carving, made from beautiful milo and standing approximately 50 inches tall, is created from trees salvaged from the fires that ravaged Maui in 2023. The Hawaiian Priest, Hiva Hiva, was meticulously crafted by hand in Dale’s Maui studio, where he masterfully brought out the revered figure hidden just beneath the charred bark.

Hiva Hiva, a legendary Hawaiian priest, played a significant role in the spiritual and cultural life of ancient Hawaii. Known for his wisdom, deep connection to the land, and ability to communicate with the gods, Hiva Hiva was a spiritual leader who guided his people through times of change and challenge. His teachings emphasized harmony with nature and respect for the sacred, making him a symbol of leadership, resilience, and the strength that comes from faith and community.

Dale’s Rising from the Ashes – Spirit of Aloha collection is being offered exclusively through Treecovery as a way to support the victims of the fire. As part of this very limited collection, each exclusive work stands out for its stunning beauty and rarity, reflecting resilience and hope amidst adversity.

Please note: Hiva Hiva is the sculpture on the right of the image. The sculpture on the left, Goddess of Fie, Pele, is available separately.
