A collaboration with Manawaka Ao, A kick-arse women of colour network in Aotearoa. Manawaka Ao mission is to strengthen collaboration and authentic engagement of women across our ethnic communities of colour, and with Tangata Whenua with Mana.
We had 2 one-day collage workshops , in Manawaka Ao’s words: “As women of colour, holding space together, sharing how our whakapapa lines came to be here in Aotearoa. Shared histories and stories that cross over and connect and connect to the Whenua (land) here and far away. Sitting in the bodies of our ancestors and knowing that the impossible is possible. ”
