Show info

404: Fafa Not Found explores the impossibility of being authentically represented and the rituals we invent when explanation fails. Drawing from queer Pasifika and Indigenous knowledge systems, it refuses to define identity, instead staging its continual rewriting. A butch queen, a liberated body, the body the algorithm rejects. This work invites you to decode what appears … and what stays hidden in the system.
