Andy Leleisi'uao "Asefeka of the Unmalosa"
Kips Gallery
This event has ended.
"Asefeka of the Unmalosa" in part is inspired by a television news story I watched a few years ago. It featured a group of scientists and environmentalists who announced the extinction of a particular species of dolphin, due directly to man-made rubbish polluting the waterway's these creatures once inhabited had bred in for thousands of years. The same story also mentioned concerns that the polar bear may also be extinct in thirty years. The enigmatic creatures and ambigeous iconography of "Asefeka of the Unmalosa" offer a canvas-sanctuary with narratives and dialogues tainted with 'alofa' (love), peace, support, hope and friendship.
