This talk explores the contemporary revitalization of tapa (barkcloth) in the Society Islands, weaving together ancestral knowledge, material practices, genealogy, and cosmology. Hinatea Colombani and Moeava Meder are Tahitian artist-researchers and cultural entrepreneurs working as a duo at the intersection of artistic creation, academic research, and cultural transmission. Together, they cofounded the 驶Arioi Cultural Center and present their work internationally through exhibitions, workshops, and collaborations with museums, universities, and Pacific communities. Lunch will be provided at this talk
