16. Hawaiʻi Triennial 2025: “Aloha Nō”

The Hawaiʻi Triennial is Hawaiʻi’s largest, thematic exhibition of contemporary art from Hawai‘i, the Pacific, and beyond. Last year’s Hawaiʻi Triennial 2025 (HT25) shared the work of 49 artists and artist collectives around the theme "Aloha Nō." In this episode, we hear from one of the three co-curators of HT25, Noelle Kahanu, as well as three HT25 artists: * Gisela McDaniel, a diasporic, Indigenous CHamoru artist who explores the effects of trauma, displacement, and colonization through portraiture and oral histories; * John Pule, the celebrated Niuean painter and poet based in Aotearoa New Zealand; and * Brandy Nālani McDougall, the Kanaka ʻŌiwi poet and educator who served as Hawaiʻi State Poet Laureate 2023-2025.

episode 15. The Blue Pacific: A Narrative for Pacific Regionalism artwork

15. The Blue Pacific: A Narrative for Pacific Regionalism

The concept of the Blue Pacific is central to Pacific regionalism. It serves as a narrative for rallying Pacific Islands countries to commitment to regionalism and collective diplomacy as well as a counter narrative to global geopolitical mappings. The Blue Pacific empowers Pacific Island countries by giving them agency to frame and tell their own narratives and map their region in context of increasing geopolitical competition. In this episode we talk story with Dame Meg Taylor, the former Secretary General of the Pacific Islands Forum Secretariat, and Sione Tekiteki, a senior lecturer at the Auckland University of Technology. We talanoa about the concept of the Blue Pacific, how it emerged, and what it means to the region.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
