Kalaini – World faces

« Kailani », the new painting of the « World faces » series. This artwork explores the deep connection between Polynesian peoples and the natural splendors of their environment

« Kailani », which means « Sea and Sky » in Hawaiian, reflects the unalterable harmony between Polynesians and the essential elements of their land. Kailani’s face is so deeply linked to her land that even her eyes reflect the sublime surrounding nature. This reflection is a testimony to how the sky and the ocean are at one with the identity and spirituality of the islands.

The moko kauae, the traditional tattoo that delicately adorns her chin, represents the passage to adulthood, marking the role of Maori women as repositories of wisdom and ancestral traditions. The floral ornaments that accompany her portrait and the vibrant hues of the canvas recall the richness of color and Polynesian culture, a culture that celebrates life through art, dance and oral traditions.

This artwork is a celebration of the inseparable union between humans and nature, reminding us that our environment is a mirror of our beliefs, values and history. We are invited to reflect on the ties that bind us to our world, and on the importance of preserving these ties for future generations.
