mahalo,

Check out some nice pictures where the Munich based Polynesian dancer Viviana Del Rio did present a dance performance with children from a kindergarten. Did someone ever saw such a Easter Island stone head costume that one dancer has?

Here's a direct link that works.

Is this a moai costume or just a lil' statue that they used as a prop?

I like the second statue, seen here (http://www.suedseetanz.com/Kindertanzgruppe_13.jpg), the one of Tuki Turi, the bearded kneeling moai from the slopes of Rano Raraku. Very creative of them to include that one as well as a 'traditional' moai.

These kids are adorable.

Thanks for the link.

I just talked to Viviana and remembered the mysterious about these pictures. She told me that some of the parents didn’t want that there kids are shown in the internet so she did use photoshop and hide them behind the stone head costumes, sorry, but I hope you did enjoy looking at these pictures anyway!
