Uwha: Tuahine
“Tuahine” delves into the expressions of femininity within sisterhood and wahine friendships, inspired by the intimate bonds shared with my friends. Stripped of individuality, the naked figures symbolize a collective vulnerability, fostering a universal connection. The piece celebrates the sacred space where women feel seen, heard, cared for, and nurtured. Each scenario reflects diverse ways friends show up for each other, inviting viewers to project their own experiences onto the toi, creating an inclusive feeling to the beauty of feminine connections.
The ribbon portrays us as individuals, highlighting connections between some and their links to others.
