Hikoi
Honolulu Biennial 2017
Hikoi is conceived as a procession and series of vignettes that respond to artwork in one of the main exhibition venues in the biennial. This site-specfic work moves through the audience and envisages its gathering of voices as a choreographic affirmation of ancestral and contemporary connections to Oceania, its oceanic histories and rhythms of migration, settlement, conflict, celebration, and cultural renewal.
Initiated by Moana Nepia in collaboration with Kara Jhalak Miller and the University of Hawai'i at Manoa Center for Pacific Island Studies and Dance students.
