| Summary: | This thesis (exegesis and creative art practice) draws on my experience of living as a Māori/Pākehā.

I research historical discourses, racial categories and theories to uncover mixed identity, which I call inbetweeness. This research offers a voice to acknowledged and resists the ambiguous position we are placed in throughout Aotearoa/New Zealand, Australia and beyond. |
