In 2024, artist Kophie Su’a-Hulsbosch collaborated with organisations on Cashel Street—Tagata Moana, Elim Church, and Youth and Cultural Development – to create a vibrant mural on Elim Church's wall at 285 Cashel Street.
Students from Tagata Moana Trust initiated the co-design process, with ideas for the mural including Pasifika culture, the ocean, navigation, and youth.
A young Samoan woman from Elim Church volunteered as the mural's model; Sandra is shown surrounded by Pacific and New Zealand native flora.
The Tuālima on her hand symbolize her ancestors and protection, while the symbols at her fingertips represent the Fa'agogo (seabird), a symbol of navigation and guidance.
This mural honours the historical and cultural journeys of Pacific peoples, celebrating their exploration and cultural interconnectedness. It also highlights the impact of rising sea levels due to climate change, particularly on Pacific Islands like Tuvalu.
