Sauniga explores the majestic world of our earliest ancestors: the animals from the land, sky and ocean – recalling the sacred connections between Aitu (Spirits) of the old world and the lives of their Samoan descendants. This live activation brings together dance, chanting and ceremony. Seeking out playful discoveries and posing curious reflections on our relationship with animals and the environment, Sauniga is told through a Samoan world view. Created by FAFSWAG director Pati Tyrell, this cultural activation features Pati Tyrell, Jaycee Tanuvasa and Peni Fakaua. Sauniga was developed with support from Asia TOPA and Creative New Zealand.
