Jon Stevens portrait by Michael Crowley
Tihei Mauri Ora captures the Māori concept of Whakapapa, about family bonds, unity and living with purpose and confidence.
The painting elements:
Koru
The 2 Fronds of the Koru represent 2 concepts:
The first concept is that of growth, rejuvenation and connection through time and space; and
The second concept is the journey of Jons Ngati Tama ancestors from Taranaki New Zealand, down the west coast of Wellington (represented by the right Frond), then across Cook Strait, into Golden Bay (Onetahua), where they established their ancestral home (represented by the left Frond)
Carvings
The carvings over Jons left shoulder are the gods Papatuanuku or Earth Mother (left) and Ranginui or Sky Father (right). These gods connect and watch over Jon, his family and ancestors through time. The carvings were taken from the Tekoteko (at the architectural apex of Jons ancestral meeting house: Onetahua Marae) and were originally carved by famous Māori carver John Mutu.
Never ending waves
The horizontal lines through the painting are the never ending waves which eminate from Jons Ngati Tama ancestors, and carry and deliver the values of love, wisdom and strength. This process is described in the Poem of the Painting:
"Yesterdays waves,
Echo ancestral heartbeat,
On the shore,
Of tomorrows dreams."
Wairua
Over Jons right shoulder is his wairua. This is his soul, his life force, his alter ego, his subconscious, his non-physical being. The wairua processes and responds to Jons world, it connects with Jons ancestors, giving him purpose, direction and confidence.
Jon
Jon is depicted standing “on the shore of tomorrows dreams” (as we all do), and in this moment of stillness & quiet contemplation ancestral waves gently roll through as steady rhythmic heartbeats arriving through time and space delivering ancestral gifts. This is our concept of whakapapa, the purpose of family, the essence of life - and to Jon’s Te Āti Awa / Ngati Tama ancestors from Taranaki New Zealand.
Collectively the painting is a tribute to family honouring whakapapa, wairua and life; a tribute to Jons family.

Hello Jon Stevens Great Voice I Love It Love INXs Forever ❤️🌶🌟❤️🥰🌹
In the late 80’s I went with my mate into Manchester UK to the Royal Exchange where he wanted to pay silly money for an even sillier haircut as he had a date with a girl later on that day. They had MTV on in the salon and as I sat waiting for him this came on. Loved it straight away. Had never heard of the band. Went straight to Paperchase Records just around the corner and bought the LP. Been a massive fan ever since. Touch album being one of my favourites of all time. What an album that is! Letter my personal favourite on it. And great that they reformed in the last couple of years. Would love to see them in Manchester.
Good song.

Awesome 😍
Jon I remember hearing your voice and loving it as a kid, but I remember really appreciating your skill and range hearing your vocal performance from the 1992 Jesus Christ Superstar show. I was on the verge of high school and you, John and Kate gave me a love of music and drama that I continued all through school. Performed in lots of shows, it was the time of my life. You're an inspiration mate. Thanks ❤️ 👍
Tino ataahua in 2024
Fabulous to see this on Jon.
Had a few beers with him at the Bondi pub back in the 80s. Some good memories.
