'Pe'a: Photographs by Mark Adams and Measina Samoa: Stories of the Malu by Lisa Taouma explore the dynamic complexity and significance of the tatau in the present day. Focusing on the pe'a and the malu, or traditionally, the male and female tattoos, associated respectively with the legendary 'flying fox', and with ideas of shelter and protection, Adams and Taouma examine these two tatau traditions from two distinct socio-cultural and gender perspectives.'
