Paradise Camp by Yuki Kihara

Interdisciplinary artist Yuki Kihara is the first Pasifika and first Fa'afafine artist to be presented by New Zealand at the prestigious 59th International Art Exhibition ― La Biennale di Venezia, with a ground-breaking exhibition of new work that addresses some of the most pressing issues of our time. Kihara's work interrogates and dismantles gender roles, consumerism, (mis)representation, and colonial legacies in the Pacific. Edited by Natalie King who has commissioned provocative essays from contributors from around the world, this publication contextualises Kihara’s lifetime of works, which puncture and expose queer and question dominant narratives, turning so-called history on its head.
