It has been two years since the Supreme Court of the United States decision to overturn Roe v Wade. This effectively reversed a recognised constitutional right for Abortion in the United States, paving the way for states to set up bans.
Wire Host Caeden spoke to the University of Auckland’s Liz Beddoe about what the impact in the United States has been, and if there still could be potential ramifications here in Aotearoa.
Jenny Rockwell has represented Aotearoa at international poetry slams and gained a sizable following on social media for her poetry readings.
Her debut collection, Vultures, is a coming-of-age story told in a Southern Gothic mode following her personal journey from growing up in the church to embracing queer joy and defiant love.
Sofia spoke to Jenny about Vultures and her practice.
Currently showing at Melanie Roger Gallery are the works of Matt Ellwood, James R Ford, and Cameron James McLaren.
In this exhibition, the artists, each presenting new and stylistically diverse work, explore the act itself of making.
In his Fourth Estate series, Cameron James McLaren explores the role of media and photography, directly sourcing documentary photography from newspapers.
Sofia caught up with Cameron about his work in the show and his practice.
Beth had a kōrero with author Amy Twigg about her debut novel, Spoilt Creatures.
