Description

How do images circulating in Pacific cultures and exchanged between them and their many visitors transform meanings for all involved?

This fascinating collection explores how through mimesis, wayfarers and locales alike borrow images from one another to expand their cultural repertoire of meanings or borrow images from their own past to validate their identities.
