‘Oro’a
Art in Polynesia, or 'oro'a, is an integral part of daily life, reflecting the islands' rich cultural tapestry. It encompasses the full spectrum of traditional creative expression, from the vibrant patterns of sarongs to the sacred tattoos that tell the stories of one's lineage and life. Polynesian art is a living dialogue between the past and present, a visual language that narrates the islands' deep connection to nature, ancestry, and the spiritual world.
