Tacky? Those tiki shoe utensils are genius! The appropriation of the Tiki idol for every day use objects is what Polynesian Pop is all about! Never seen that one done before, I always am happy to see the Tiki put to yet another use. Tacky Tiki to me is nouveaux Tiki a la K-mart, Poly-Asian style, or in garish colors, or overly cartoony Tikis having no resemblence to the source, like those toy figures (name?). |
