Melis spent countless hours penning immaculate patterns and closely examining the flora of New Zealand. Melis left his extensive art collection to the Foundation, and many of appeared in the film Oku Moe Moea – The Dream which is Bigger than I Am’. Shona Hammond Boys presents in this book a selection of Melis’s line drawings along with his quotes around art, creativity, and life.
