Our travelling Irish friend Fin Dac has just been in Whangārei in the north of New Zealand for the latest Street Prints Festival ‘Street Prints Manaia.

Working to a theme of ‘Weaving the Threads of Humanity’ Fin chose to depict a model/muse of dual ethnicity/heritage: Maori and Filipino.

The ‘spilt’ image shows traditional clothing from both sides as well as specific jewellery and adornments.

Interesting fact: the Filipino dress is based on a photo of a dress that belonged to Imelda Marcos… socialite and wife of the Philippine president/dictator Ferdinand Marcos
