Rapa Nui is the Southern corner of the Polynesian triangle, why doubt it's Polynesia? Moai are Tiki Modern because Thor's Aku Aku made them a popular icon, and they were utilized in Polynesian Pop extensively. Kava Kava men are not Tiki Modern because no Poly Pop places ever used them as icons. What restaurant would wanna use mean lookin', rib-cage showing old guys as advertisement? They are nevertheless cool Oceanic art. |
