Aotearoa Queer indigenous arts collective FAFSWAG is in Melbourne showcasing their latest work at the Asia Pacific Triennial of Performing Arts. The three-week festival lights up the city bringing together creatives from across the region. The new piece Sauniga is still in early development but will give the artists a chance to gauge feedback. The Tamaki Makaurau-based arts collective was established in 2013 and has since performed and exhibited around the world, held various residencies and became Arts Laureates in 2020. Artists Elyssia Wilson-Heti and Pati Tyrell speak to Culture 101.
