It's been a hectic three years on the Utaina team but this most important work has been completed. Don't know your past, can't know your future. I take a lot of pride in what the team accomplished. #digitalarchives #culturalheritage #newzealand #audiovisual #history www.1news.co.nz/2025/10/18/p...
Project to preserve 400,000 audio-visual files nears completion
"It's the first step in unlocking this kind of material so that future generations of New Zealanders have access to it," National Library Chief Librarian Jess Moran said.

"Geisha Yume" by Nanami Cowdroy, 2009 bit.ly/2lR5f5r

#contemporaryart #SevenSeas #Geisha #storytelling #culturalheritage #Japan #artgallery #buyart #collectart #artlovers
Title: Geisha Yume Artist: Nanami Cowdroy Medium: Hand signed, limited edition giclée on paper Edition: #26/50 Year: 2009 Size: 84.0cm x 61.0cm Good To Know: Unframed, professionally packed, stored flat, condition report available upon request. Price: SGD $350; excludes international shipping and applicable import duties / charges. See It On Your Wall "Geisha Yume" by Nanami Cowdroy, 2009 Arty-Fact: The artist's detailed style reflects a refined monochrome palette with her name, 'Nanami' (meaning "Seven Seas" in Japanese), stamped in red. Fluid line-work, watery creatures, cranes and goldfish feature heavily in her work. Nanami's work is very much subject based and she is particularly drawn to creatures from the sea, bringing them to life through her fluid line-work and elaborate illustrations. The depth of her work is precise and evocative and the influences of her culture are apparent in Nanami's bold images.

Human Hair in collections. Who's thinking about/ writing about/ discussing this? What hair have you got? How do you approach potential sensitivities?
