31 years flying high 🕊️ I was only 7 years old when you left this world for your place in the kingdom and although I was young, I still have some of the fondest memories of you, your infectious smile, your cheeky giggle, your generous heart but most of all - your unconditional love ❤️

I miss you granddad and often think what life would be like if I got to know you more, but you left behind your legacy of love and for that I will always remember you x

Throwback Thursday - All the New Zealanders who have crossed the ditch and now live in Australia, all have different things that they miss (Chinese Food, Kai Moana, Tip Top Ice cream hahaha Food IYKYK)…. But Kokonut Kid misses all the FLOWER SHOPS 😅 walking down the main road in Otahuhu, through Mangere Town Centre and Hunters Plaza, and being able to get all the necessities…. Someone please open a shop here in Brisbane 🤣😭

What did you SEI? lol

In honour of Vaiaso o le Gagana Samoa here’s sis Jah wearing one of Kokonut Kids “Feature Sei Clips” for those that don’t want to wear a full crown but a single sei wasn’t gonna cut it 😝

The original fusion crown was constructed in 2019 for an exhibition called “Putiputi” meaning flower at

It was made using floral remnants from previous projects I had created. When asked what it represented, the vision I had in mind was that each element stood alone as an individual piece, but together they formed a fusion of many parts. It became a metaphor for Auckland’s diverse Polynesian cultures—a melting pot of people, traditions, and identities that, while unique in their own right, come together to create a vibrant and unified community.

This is a version of the original worn by my Aunty Moran Vee, and the second image is the original on display at Vunilagi Vou
