Atamira Dance Company is delighted to announce:
MOKO
Inspired by the traditional Maori art of body tattooing, MOKO is a conceptual dance performance that is spurred by the
enticement of mana (spiritual power) where the patterns of Ta Moko explode, both emotionally and literally, onto the
stage in new and exciting three-dimensional forms.
MOKO, Atamira Dance Company’s newest full-length work, takes audiences on an unforgettable journey. A showcase of
fashion, form and force, MOKO marks a powerful new direction for the company. With costumes by avant-garde fashion house
WORLD, plus an immersive sound and light set that will have audiences at the edge of their seats, Atamira looks set to
own the indigenous dance space. Unmissable.
