[SOLD OUT! Thank you, we've raised $2000 for The Manaaki Collective]
· A brand new limited edition tote bag talisman by multi-award winning painter Ayesha Green
· 100% of profits given to The Manaaki Collective, who support those speaking against mis- and disinformation.
· Kete was conceived in response to online disinformation movements in Aotearoa. National Contemporary Art Award winner Ayesha Green (Ngāti Kahungunu, Kāi Tahu) & musician Dudley Benson (Pākehā) worked towards creating a powerful symbol of resistance that can be utilised in everyday life. Activist Alex Gorrie (Kāi Tahu, Kāti Māmoe, Waitaha) provided the incantation:
Whāia ngā kete mātauranga: Pursue the kete of knowledge & understanding
· Kete is an edition of 100, printed in full colour by The Print Room in Ōtepoti, on black AS Colour 100% heavyweight cotton canvas, with reinforced shoulder straps.
· Shine the light with this work by one of Aotearoa’s most celebrated painters of her generation, and help the Manaaki Collective in their essential mahi of supporting marginalised voices in the pursuit of human rights and Treaty justice.
· (No money in this project goes to Ayesha, Dudley or Alex: their time and energy has been donated. 100% of profits ($19.88 p/kete) are passed on to the Manaaki Collective · https://themanaakicollective.nz
· )
