S5 E11 - The Veiqia Poject

The Veiqia Project is a creative research project inspired by the practice of Fijian female tattooing of veiqia. In 2015 a group of Fijian women based in New Zealand and Australia were brought together to create new works for an exhibition inspired by veiqia (Fijian female tattoo), a practice that was stopped from around the mid-19th century and conducted in secrecy up to the early 20th century.   The project involved an online research forum and time spent with Fijian collections in Fiji and New Zealand museums. The exhibition took place at ST PAUL St Gallery in March 2016 for the Auckland Arts Festival and coincided with the PAA XII International Symposium. Four years after their creation - on the 27th April 2019, The Veiqia Project held an event on Dhawaral country at Campbelltown Arts Centre called 'Solevu' - a full day of delicious lovo-making (Fijian earth oven), workshops and talanoa to celebrate the last 18 months of cross-generational Era Yalovata Na Marama program. And due to this event, which Cribbs came across and invited Talica....The 2 Brownish Girls podcast was born. Join Cribbs & Talica and members of The Veiqia Project, Donita, Luisa and Margaret for great interview.

S5 E2 - Pacific Islanders and K-pop

Correction: We incorrectly mentioned Girls Generation in Korean slang is SNSD, however that is not slang and is the abbreviated format of their name in Korean which is 소녀시대 (Romanized: Sonyeo Sidae)  We apologize for this error. With this year being the final year of the 2 Brownish Girls podcast, we've decided to also discuss topics we're interested in that's linked to our community. Talica is joined by her brother Mo and friends of the podcast, sisters Allua and Lili to discuss one of their favourite topics ever - K-pop, specifically discussing the correlation between Korean pop music and Pacific Islanders, with a lot of our community being K-pop stans and also famous Pasifika dance choreographers such as Parris Goebel who have worked with Big Bang, 2NE1, CL and Taeyang and Sienna Lalau who has worked with BTS.  We discuss the positive impact K-pop has had in our lives, our earliest memories of it, our favourite groups and choreography and also if we were idols, which agency would we sign with. Join us for this fun filled K-pop enthusiast episode!
