“I can have my legs done and still be Māori, I can have my face done and still be Samoan” Subscribe to Re: bit.ly/subscrib...
Charle and Gabrielle who carry the markings from both their cultures, shared their journey with Ohinga, discussing what it means to wear both a moko kauae and malu.
For Charle, living in the small town of Tairua is what grounds her to being Maori, in the heart of where she calls home and only a few minutes from her marae. Receiving moko kauae came naturally. Her mulu was a way of outwarding blending her Samoan identitv into who she is.
Gabrielle has grown up strongly connected to her taha Mãori and wearing moko kauae was a natural progression of that. She always felt that she would receive her malu from a young age, in order to stay connected with her Samoan side.
This is part of our reo Māori series, Ohinga, created by Mahi Tahi with funding from Te Māngai Pāho Stay tuned for a new episode every week.
