| Abstract | "Expression of Identity: Maori Ta Moko and the Utilization of the Internet", examines Ta Moko (the tattoo) of Maori, the indigenous peoples of Aotearoa/New Zealand within the Maori Renaissance Movement. Ta Moko is discussed as an expression of identity (cultural, heritage/family, spiritual, and personal) and as art intersecting the public realm (the body in space). A close examination of how Maori communicate identity through the utilization of the socially constructed public realm of the Internet will also be discussed (Castells, 2004, p. 54). Kaupapa Maori Theory (contemporary term for ancient Maori theorizing and documenting Maori experience by Maori) will be imperative to the discussion of Ta Moko. This research will provide insight, broadening the discourse of public art. |
