A declaration, a commitment, a dream.
From a series of perfectly imperfect, hand-cut, machine-sewn textile assemblages, now proudly made in Paekākāriki with revolution in mind.
Vasemaca (FKA Ema) Tavola is a Fijian-Pākehā artist-curator currently based on the Kāpiti Coast. Tavola’s practice is aligned with the politics of decolonisation and Indigenous feminisms, motherhood, and histories of BIPOC art and activism in the Global South. She established her painting practice in Suva, Fiji before relocating to South Auckland where she studied sculpture, arts management and applied Indigenous knowledge. As a visual artist, Tavola works primarily in textiles drawing from art histories that centre women, revolution and social justice.
