I/V w/ Qiane Matata-Sipu of NUKU: April 17, 2019

Qiane Matata-Sipu is the founder and creator of Nuku, a creative and social impact story-telling project which was launched in January this year. The project has a focus to interview, photograph and film 100 kickass indigenous women across Aotearoa. A podcast, an interview, a creative portrait shoot and behind the scenes videography are all released about a different woman every week. At the end of the project, after having interviewed 100 woman, Qiane will be making a book and exhibiting the series in 2020. Lillian Hanly had a chat with Qiane about the platform and where the idea came from as she had indicated the idea had been in her heart long before the January launch date. Lillian started by asking what made her want to do this.
