Tiki Master Artool Stencils FH-TM7 by Dennis Mathewson - All Six!!
Tiki mania! The art of woodcarving has existed in Polynesia for
centuries. As in other mythological religions, the ancient
Polynesians believed that different elements were represented by
different gods. These carvings, or tikis as we know them, resulted
in thousands of different images.
When westerners arrived in Polynesia to spread their religious beliefs, and to put a halt to any pagan worship, many tikis were destroyed as well as lost to termites and the elements. Only a few originals remain today.
The surfing rage of the 1960s brought the tiki back into popularity with their images portrayed on surfboards, clothing and fashioned jewelry. Tiki bars sprung up from Miamis Don the Beachcomber to California and Waikiki.
Today, since retro is kewl again, our Kustom Kulture has brought tikis back to be lighthearted and fun like the 60s. But the truth is, they never really left Hawaii!
