Performer During the Heiva Festival in Anau, Bora Bora, French Polynesia - Sasha Popovic

"The Heiva, held every July, is much more than just a festival. It is a true celebration of Polynesian culture, a time when the inhabitants of Bora Bora and all of French Polynesia honor their ancestral traditions through artistic performances and sports competitions. The six communes of Bora Bora compete in song and dance contests, each hoping to win the coveted title."

Parade of Nations - French Polynesia

French: Polynésie Française // English: French Polynesia // Japanese: フランス領ポリネシア (Furansu-ryō Porineshia)

    French Polynesia is an overseas collectivity of France and its sole overseas country. Presently, any athletes born in French Polynesia compete under the French flag at the Olympics. Since February 2004, the country has gained some administrative autonomy represented by their appointment of a President of French Polynesia as well as their “overseas country” designation. French Polynesia will be the site of the Paris 2024 Summer Olympics surfing contests.

    “Tahiti is the birthplace of many cultures on the Pacific islands, featuring tattoos, Tahitian dance, surfing and canoeing. The eight hooks (the fabric around the hem) and the sleeve swing (the fabric inside) contain crimson red and a tattoo pattern. The dancer with the silhouette of the back is drawn to emerge softly.”[1]

    “The symbolic tattoo pattern of Polynesian culture was deformed and woven using the Hakata-ori technique. Taking advantage of the characteristics of Kazetsuori, the same pattern is used on the front and back sides to reverse the color scheme, creating a two-sided work. In addition, we changed the design of the torso and the back when wearing it to express the dynamics of the tattoo.” [1]
