Description

American sculpture and paintings and the carved wooden figures of the South Pacific that inspired them. These kitsch figures, called "Tiki," were a popular art and design motif of the 1950s.

First Sentence

The tiki's ability to transform itself into so many different forms while still holding onto a tiny part of its original meaning has allowed it to transcend many cultures and much time.
