BONUS - An Interview with Sydney Pasifika Icons: Mel Ree and Stelly G

2 Brownish Girls

‘Our connection to home and place cradles our identities, nourishes our spirits and heals us emotionally. But what happens when you’re physically disconnected? Away from home, not knowing when you can return. Dressed in another culture for so long that your own feels like a costume.’ Tonight we’re joined by 2 of the 4 Pasifika women behind a new production called ORA/MATE birthed by the Black Birds Creative Arts collective by Ayeesha Ash in collaboration with multidisciplinary artists: Mel Ree, Sela Vai and Stelly G. They will be performing at the Pact Centre, Marrickville between 14th to 17th July with their new production ‘ORA/MATE’.
