The Veiqia Project is a creative research project inspired by the practice of Fijian female tattooing of veiqia.

In 2015 a group of Fijian women based in New Zealand and Australia were brought together to create new works for an exhibition inspired by veiqia (Fijian female tattoo), a practice that was stopped from around the mid-19th century and conducted in secrecy up to the early 20th century.  

The project involved an online research forum and time spent with Fijian collections in Fiji and New Zealand museums. The exhibition took place at ST PAUL St Gallery in March 2016 for the Auckland Arts Festival and coincided with the PAA XII International Symposium.

Four years after their creation - on the 27th April 2019, The Veiqia Project held an event on Dhawaral country at Campbelltown Arts Centre called 'Solevu' - a full day of delicious lovo-making (Fijian earth oven), workshops and talanoa to celebrate the last 18 months of cross-generational Era Yalovata Na Marama program.

And due to this event, which Cribbs came across and invited Talica....The 2 Brownish Girls podcast was born. Join Cribbs & Talica and members of The Veiqia Project, Donita, Luisa and Margaret for great interview.

Cribbs and Talica interview long time friend of the podcast - Pasepa, an Environmental Science major from Macquarie University, who has worked previously in Ecological Restoration. But she is not just a Scientist, she is a multi-faceted Baddie who has made her debut as a 007 in this year’s West Ball 4, hosted by Father Xander Silky and previous 2 Brownish Girls guest, Jamaica Moana, modeled in campaigns such as Light Speech in Issue 5 for Astrophe Magazine and alongside with another previous 2 Brownish Girls guest, Isaac Nasedra organized the 2021 Fiji COVID Relief Mask drive for Fiji.
