In 2020, I had the opportunity to paint a wall in the foyer of the Māngere Arts Centre, at the time my local community arts hub. This project was coordinated and facilitated by Aotearoa Urban Arts Trust — big thanks to Livi, the crew at MAC, and to my nephew Tala for company, entertainment and a little help. This mural is dedicated to my mum, Carol, who has always been the biggest inspiration in my own creativity.
