Marama Dina is an exhibition borne of research and engagement: ongoing research led by The Veiqia Project that aims to reconnect iTaukei (Indigenous Fijian) women with traditional cultural practices; and inter-generational engagement developed through eight workshops over a 12-month period which began in 2018 at C-A-C. Featuring new commissions by 10 artists from Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand, the Marama Dina exhibition sees iTaukei women take over C-A-C to share the exploration of cultural rejuvenation and celebration with the wider community.
Artists include: Margaret Aull, Torika Bolatagici, Donita Vatuinaruku Hulme, Yasbelle Kerkow, Joana Monolagi, Dulcie Stewart, Salote Tawale, Luisa Tora, Emele Ugavule and MC Trey aka Thelma Thomas.

The video:
Her recent video clip was filmed in Fiji to showcase the beauty of Fiji. The style of music is electronic hip-hop/ trap which is a contemporary sound. The song and the video provide a beautiful contrast of the urban and the island and talks of the nine to five that we all face but encourage us all to take a break…in Fiji perhaps? The locations include Uprising Fiji, The Pearl and the areas between Pacific Harbour and Momi Bay. This song and video also features the Fiji 7s team and aims to motivate listeners to strive for excellence, whilst also alluding to the effects of climate change in the Pacific.
The event is by Invitation only and will take place in Suva, Fiji in July 2017.
