Kōrero with Pip Davies:

“So the magic of it is, why do we even make these things?

And if you try and think about that too much, you've just lost the point. The point is just to make these things and allow them to be something that other people engage with it. “

Kōrero with Pip Davies:

“It helps ground me. It just really helped to place the stories of where we are from. Of this Place, the show was really quite interesting because it was about geography to begin with, but actually it is about this, it is about community and having a right to stand.

Your turanagawaewae, what you stand for. “

Kōrero with Pip Davies:

“This community was in plain sight this whole time.

But I have to be ready to move from being me to being we, right? And you can walk through all your life and you don't know that that's what you need. But you are looking for connection.”

Kōrero with Pip Davies:

Sacha: “It was, to me it was interesting, the material she was working with, and I didn't see ‘craft’ at all, not not a drop. And whilst yeah, working with material, and she's a woman that didn't come across.

It was pretty clear that we're going to do something.”

Kōrero with Pip Davies:

“Everyone is your best work.

That's the attitude, you know. It doesn't matter whether the family is going to view or not, you honour the person who was by looking after their body. “

Kōrero with Pip Davies:

”Craft is your commitment to what you do.

You know, a painter is a craftsperson, a sculptor is a craftsperson, a musician is a craftsperson. The craft is the commitment to what you do and doing it. That is your language.”
