Artist Spotlight
Kana: Invigorating Cord Wear in 21st Century Ceremony
Dr. Taupōuri Tangarō
Thursday, June 29, 2017

*Some of the audio was not spoken into the mic and so it can only be heard faintly. But it was only for brief moments - an oli (chant) at the beginning and a few moments to display some of the cord pieces.

Honoring Kana, Hiloʻs Deity of Cord, Tangarō shares his personal journey toward the innovative manifestation of the corded wear. He weaves and knots mythology, history, and the culture of knowledge acquisition in this presentation, sharing how he uses the processes of "Hawaiian art” to build indigenous leadership capacity in the University of Hawaiʻi System. The intersection of dreams, tradition, innovation, and indigenous wellbeing are driving forces behind his works.

Dr. Taupōuri Tangarō has a few cordage garments displayed in the Hulia ‘Ano: Inspired Patterns exhibit in the J. M. Long Gallery on exhibit through October 16, 2017.
