Wāhine Māori 0.1 APK

Wāhine Activist Art is a platform to protest and highlight Te Tino Rangatiratanga. It provides an opportunity to educate, visualise and create dialogue through art. An element of the work by this alliance of Wāhine addresses trauma created in response to colonisation’s ongoing effects.
Featuring an impressive group of multi-disciplinary artists working across photography, sculpture, fashion, weaving and paint, the works are grounded in activism. This exhibition is a representation of the contribution of Wāhine Māori to the whakapapa that is Aotearoa art history. These Wāhine use art as a tool to highlight the injustices imposed upon themselves; me tō rātou uri me tō rātou whānau hoki.
