Part 3 of 4
Title of Artwork: Water: the ‘ōte’a Dancer
Medium: Assemblage technique- acrylic, textiles, sea-shells, beads
This artwork depicts a Tahitian dance performance, which is characteristically energetic and
striking, with rapid hip movements to percussion—each dance being a narrative of
mythological tales or events in their daily life. I associated it with the element “water”, since
the Polynesian dance is performed next to sea. I composed the elaborate outfit that covers
the otea from head to toe- including an elaborate headpiece, garlands and a voluminous,
flowing grass skirt.
