What does yellow mean to you?
Cheerful, joy, loving, optimistic, happy, sunflowers, friendly, spontaneous, sunshine, lemonade, warmth, enlightenment etc…
My Aunty once told me she only wore yellow undergarments because it made her happy.
On any day I hope all those meanings or at least 1 surround you…
Cook Island based visual artist Remiah, living in Rarotonga she has been honing her skills in painting for the past few years.
'My inspiration stems from my culture, my surroundings and mostly as a Cook Island woman. We hold a certain boldness about ourselves, as mothers, mama's, aunties, sisters, friends. With strength, elegance, playfulness and a touch of secrecy.
Remiah loves creating using a wide range of mediums, but predominantly working with acrylic. “Exploring contemporary art styles all with a Cook Island flair connects me more to culture.'
