About the event
We're thrilled to host this event to celebrate Noho Tahi | 和平共處 by Noho Tahi Collective, with 5ever Books.
Noho Tahi | 和平共處 is the inaugural residency project for The Dan and Una Chan & Laywood and Joyce Chan Residency at Wai-te-ata Press. The Residency’s focus is on “projects that enhance understandings of and engagement with Chinese Aotearoa, whether historical, social or cultural.
This multimedia collection reflects on noho tahi | 和平共處, peaceful co-existence between cultures — an emerging invitation for Hainamana/NZ Chinese communities to reorient ourselves towards Tangata Whenua in ways that uphold Tikanga Māori, Te Tiriti o Waitangi, and the diversities and complexities within Hainamanatanga (Chinese ways of being in Aotearoa).
Speakers on the night are; Etienne Wain 黃義天 , Juhyeon 주현, brenda wang, Brecon Dobbie 布雷肯.
