「産むのは私なのに、どうして自分にとって正しいと感じる産み方ができないだろう？」　@okinawajudy のこの素朴な問いから生まれたドキュメンタリー映画『パシフィック・マザー』

“I am the one giving birth—so why can’t I have the birth that feels right to me?”
This simple questioninspired the documentary Pacific Mother.

出産は命のはじまりー
それを見つめ直すことは、
「私たちはどこから来て、どこへ向かうのか」を問い直すこと。
Birth is where life begins—
and reflecting on it is also a way to ask where we come from and where we are going.

舞台は太平洋🌊
沖縄、ハワイ、タヒチ、クック諸島、ニュージーランド。
Mother Ocean（母なる海）とともに生きる女性たちの、それぞれのバースストーリー。
From Okinawa to Hawai‘i, Tahiti, the Cook Islands, and Aotearoa—
women who live with Mother Ocean share their deeply personal birth journeys. @ravaray @kimi_swimmy @ana_fficial

母のように海のように、
たくましく、しなやかに。
彼女たちの声が未来へ響きますように。
They are mothers, strong and fluid like Mother Ocean itself.　
May their voices resonate toward the future.

Heiva i Tahiti 2025
My solo for the dance troupe Te Taimanarau from Mo’orea

The best part of participating in this competition this year was that my two children were watching me in the stands of Toata and that my partner was dancing with me and shouting « I love you » during our show! by @ravaray

Somewhere in French Polynesia

Have you ever meet a mermaid?
I Have…

Her name is @ravaray.

Some souls belong to the ocean.
Rava is one of them…

Where others see rays,
She sees sisters. 🤍🌊

For Uvihi’s 6th birthday we had him carve a tiki with his dad and then we went into the lagoon, found a spot we could go back to later, and found his tiki a home.
Now when we take the outrigger out we like to take a swim and visit him. His name is Tere, which means to travel. by @ravaray
