Recent changes in the political landscape of Aotearoa have left many of us in dire need of something more mana enhancing, more identity enriching, more pono, more tika - to carry us in to 2024.
We hope you can wear, share, and engage with this nail art koha to raise the collective consciousness of Aotearoa one nail at a time.
This limited edition statement set includes:
- Elements of the Tino Rangatiratanga Flag, designed by Hiraina Marsden, Jan Dobson & Linda Munn.
- Kupu Māori (Māori words) in support of the ongoing revitalisation of this taonga: Toitū te Tiriti; Tangata Whenua; Mana Motuhake.
This kaupapa is about partnership and unity. These designs are intended to empower EVERYONE, whether you whakapapa Māori, or not.
Made with love in Aotearoa.
