Manuia is a collaboration between six artists from Rarotonga, the heart of the Cook Islands. The exhibition seeks to counter some of the stereotypes created by generations of Western visitors to the Pacific – the coral atolls lined with palm trees, the primeval mountain vistas, the exotic practices and idyllic lifestyles of its people.

In its publicity for the exhibition, Rarotonga gallery Beachcomber Contemporary Art states that Manuia “is designed to confront traditional, institutionalized theories about contemporary Pacific art practice, a challenge to the persistent, universal, ‘Pacific fantasy’ perspective that dominates the understanding of contemporary Pacific art frameworks.”
