Description:
As Māori, we see the world through a dual lens: the feminine and the masculine, dark and light, sacred and profane. Right at this moment in our world the masculine is dominant and the feminine has become enslaved and silenced. This imbalance has been manifested in our selfish consumption and destruction of Papatūānuku (Earth mother). ‘Āio’ is a karanga, a call out to the universe to return the divine feminine to wāhine (women) and to Papatūānuku, and therefore bring balance and peace to our world.
