POWER & TABOO - Sacred Objects from the Pacific

28 September 2006 to 07 January 2007

OPENING CEREMONY

THE COOK ISLANDS - the traditional 'Hura', the swaying of the hips in a ‘side to side motion’, tell the story of the action song ‘Roimata’, meaning teardrop.

HAWAII - enjoyed throughout the world for its beauty, its poetry and prayer in motion, the hula traces its ancient roots to the beginning of time. Hula is ritual - the highest form of artistic and spiritual expression in Hawaii. This is an invitation to walk between worlds and dance the splendour of the sacred hula - together as 'ohana' family."
