Tèhlor-Lina Mareko is a multimedia artist who uses photography and video to represent a sense of familiarity. She uses her everyday reality as a visual starting point for making photographs, video and sound works. By making images of moments or behaviours that slip through the cracks of the everyday, Mareko places importance on her family and her communities’ lived experiences as diasporic Samoan people. Moments, phrases, behaviors that seem ordinary or plain on the surface but are imbued with deeper, enigmatic Samoan qualities and meaning. Mareko has a Master of Visual Arts from AUT. Her work has been included in group shows including And Then What? at ST PAUL St Gallery, the 2018 Eden Arts Art School Awards, and Artists on Artists at Studio One Toi Tū, 2022.
