About the artist

Auckland-based student of Sāmoan and Scottish descent. She comes from a family rich with creative influences, from visual arts to written language. Having started her early life in a full-immersion Sāmoan preschool, she spent much of her formative years being raised in Manila, Philippines. Returning to Aotearoa New Zealand for high school, leading Teuila to explore what Sāmoan identity and being within Western constructs means today. These themes are prevalent in her creative writing, printmaking and photography.

Following that, she was a finalist in the New Zealand Secondary School Photography Competition. She is currently studying towards a Bachelor of Visual Arts at AUT.
