The Story:
While fun, playful and joyous at surface level, Plastic Maori carries deep rooted identity politics, highlighting a culture war within itself, and within oneself.
Shame shadows our very culture, Iâm sick of trying to explain to myself why I am Maori.
âMaybe if I learn Te Reo Iâll feel more Maoriâ
âI should visit the Marae more, Iâll feel more Maoriâ
A deeper truth is, I am scared of my own culture, and I believe you are too.
Privilege swallows the right to feel Maori, where it should empower it.
Connection to culture, be it blood, language, immersion. is best served and celebrated anyway you choose how.
Plastic Maori Celebrates this, it doesnât need to explain itself, it simply is what it is, and it definitely wonât apologise.
Edward X (Maori Artist
