My Tatau: Vaipuna Siaunu‘ua shares what her tatau (Sāmoan tattoo) means to her
- Description:
- “You know, as much as you want to show the malu off it’s something that you’ve just got to respect. You only show the malu when it needs to be shown.” Five Sāmoan New Zealanders share what their tatau means to them. ʻUa faʻasoa mai e tagata Sāmoa e toʻalima mai Niu Sila le tāua o le tatau iā i latou. Tokorima ngā uri o Hāmoa nō Aotearoa e kōrero ana mō ā rātou tatau. Part of the exhibition ‘Tatau: Tatau Sāmoa ma ata puʻe | Sāmoan Tattooing and Photography’: https://www.tepapa.nz/tatau
