What’s in a name?

We’re hosting an #IWD2021 event at #VunilagiVou2_0 in partnership with @nukuwomen on March 8 and International Women’s Day has always been important to me because of the pivotal introduction I had to understanding the application of feminist thought, action and strategy through the Fiji Women's Rights Movement back when I was 18 years old in Suva, Fiji 🙌🏽🇫🇯🔥

Such a cool afternoon spent at @aucklandartfair today! Thank you Remco for the invitation to speak alongside the excellent @ioanagordonsmith, @timmelvillegallery and Kimberley Moulton in the #ABaseOfPeople talks series! It’s always awe-inspiring to see @sylviamarsters work in the flesh and en masse and awesome to see @mr_rimonitmd showing in the good looking @bergmangallery booth, and our rockstars @yukikihara, Andy Leleisi’uao and @fatufeuu shining bright in @artis_gallery and @milfordgalleries booths. It’s pretty amazing to see so much great art under one roof, and an ocean breeze too - what a bonus! 🙌🏽🌊🌺⚡️

Had a lovely long appointment at the Gallery today with 2 year old Kiana and her mum, Tee, who is one of many mums who keep their kids images off social media 🙌🏽 Love making space for mums and little ones, playing and chatting, giggling and drawing. This beautiful Fijian #Kuta mat is so soft and woven from freshwater reeds rather than pandanus - a perfect play zone for little ones! 🤎

Vinaka vakalevu team @interislandcollective for coming through to talk ideas and plans, art crits and evolving culture/identities of the #MoanaOceania diaspora both here and in the UK - so looking forward to working together again! ✨🌺🙌🏽⚡️

A new addition to our #VVStockRoom exhibition at @thealexandercafe in #Ōtara is beautifully framed poster (edition of 10) by #TanuGago made for our 2019 exhibition, “Finding Emory: A Poster Show”.

Having worked with #Ihumātao-based photographer, media maker and activist, Qiane Matata-Sipu many, many times over the past many years, it is such a joy to be co-producing an #IWD2021 event here at Vunilagi Vou in partnership with @nukuwomen next month!

Excited to be speaking alongside @timmelvillegallery with @ioanagordonsmith this Thursday at the @aucklandartfair in central #Auckland, one of three talks in the “A Base of People” programme curated by Remco de Blaaij (Director of @artspace.aotearoa) on behalf of Ngātahi (a collaboration between Auckland arts organisations Artspace Aotearoa, Gus Fisher Gallery, Objectspace, ST PAUL St Gallery, Te Tuhi and Te Uru) and supported by @creativenz. It’s not free but entry to the Art Fair offers access to a pretty amazing room of contemporary art!

Our collective of #SouthAuckland-based arts managers, #TūTonu, participated in this series of online talks with Indonesian contemporary art collective, #ruangrupa, earlier this year and the full series of talks is now available via @artspace.aotearoa 🙌🏽

Can’t wait to celebrate #IWD2021 with the powerhouse team at @nukuwomen! Very limited tickets available, secure a booking by emailing me, Ema: hello@vunilagivou.com
